Don't Bring Lulu

Your presence is requested, wrote little Johnny White

But with this invitation, there is a stipulation

When you attend this party, you'll all be treated right

But there's a wild and wooly woman you boys can't invite

You can bring Pearl, she's a darn nice girl

But don't bring Lulu

You can bring Rose with the turned-up nose

But don't bring Lulu

Lulu always wants to do

What we boys don't want her do

When she struts her stuff around

London bridge is falling down

You can bring cake or Porterhouse steak

But don't bring Lulu

Lulu gets blue and she goes cuckoo

Like a clock up on the shelf

She's the kind of smarty

Who breaks up every party

Hullabaloo-loo, don't bring Lulu

(I'll bring her myself)

We all went to the party, a real high-toned affair

And then along came Lulu, as wild as any Zulu

She started in to Charleston, and how the boys did stare

But when she did the hula-hula, then she got the air

You can bring Nan with the old deadpan

But don't bring Lulu

You can bring Tess with her no and yes

But don't bring Lulu

Lulu has the reddest hair

Redder here and redder there

How can we boys keep our heads?

Bulls go wild when they see red

You can bring peas and cruller and cheese

But don't bring Lulu

Give her two beers and she tears poor cheers

And she throws cups off the shelf

When she loves with feelin'

The boys all hit the ceilin'

Hullabaloo-loo, don't bring Lulu

She'll come here herself
