Joseph J. Sullivan — Where Did You Get That Hat?

[Verse 1] Now how I came to get this hat 'tis very strange and funny Grandfather died and left to me his property and money And when the will it was read out they told me straight and flat If I would have his money I must always wear his hat [Chorus] Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style? I should like to have one just the same as that Where e'er I go they shout: "Hello, where did you get that hat?" [Verse 2] If I go to the op'ra house, in the op'ra season There's someone sure to shout at me without the slightest reason If I go to a "chowder club" to have a jolly spree There's someone at the party who is sure to shout at me: [Chorus] Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style? I should like to have one just the same as that Where e'er I go they shout: "Hello, where did you get that hat?" [Verse 3] At twenty-one I thought I would to my sweetheart be married The people in the neighborhood had said too long we'd tarried So off to church we went right quick determined to get wed I had not long been in there when the parson to me said: [Chorus] Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style? I should like to have one just the same as that Where e'er I go they shout: "Hello, where did you get that hat?" Where did you get that hat? Where did you get that tile? Isn't it a nobby one and just the proper style? I should like to have one just the same as that Where e'er I go they shout: "Hello, where did you get that hat?"
