Track byHoagy Carmichael
I gotta gal that's mighty sweet With blue eyes and tiny feet Her name is Rosabelle Magee And she tips the scale at three o three Oh gee, but ain't it grand to have a girl So big and fat that when you hug her You don't know where you're at You have to take a piece of chalk in your hand And hug a way and chalk a mark To see where you began One day when I was a huggin' and a chalkin' And a chalkin' and a huggin' a way When I met another fella with some chalk in his hand Comin' around the other way 'round the mountain Comin' around the other way Nobody ever said I'm weak My bones don't ache and my joints creak But I, I grow absolutely limp Every time I kiss my baby blimp, oh One day I had a yen for some one leaner, she was meaner than a Mink in a pen. So I left her now I'm happy as a fella could be Huggin' and chalkin' in once a gain 'round my Rosie Huggin' and chalkin' in once again One day I was a huggin' and a chalkin' and a beggin' her to be my bride When I met another fella with some chalk in his hand Comin' a round the other side of the mountain Comin' around the other side
