about

Written by Louis & Lil Hardin- Armstrong - 1926

lyrics

Let him put you down!
If he dares.
I'll pick you up for myself.
Just as soon, I don't care.
You'll never rest on the shelf.
I've been looking for a girl like you for so long.
A girl so nice and gentle with a love so strong.
I'll make life for you, one grand sweet song.
Aw give me a break, sweet mama, and you can't go wrong.
I for you
You for me
That's the only way two loving hearts should be.
So just be glad when he puts you down.
I'll pick you up for myself.
