(Verse 1)
[JIMMY]
It's good to see familiar faces:
Rosie, Posie, Josie, Polly, Molly, May
I've thought of you in far-off places:
Hilda, Gilda, Tilda, Billie, Lilly, Fay
Without you, dear old pals, I've known some
Days that were awf'ly lonesome
(Chorus)
I hope you've missed me as I missed you
Dear little girl
I was lonesome; were you lonesome too
Dear little girl?
Now that I am here again
I could jump for joy
With such friends it's clear again:
I'm a lucky boy
Make me happy, tell me this is true
Dear little girl
Say you'vе missed me much as I missed you
Dеar little girl
(Verse 2)
[GIRLS]
Oh how we've missed you. Take the word of
Rosie, Posie, Josie, Polly, Molly, May
With loyalty that is unheard of
Hilda, Gilda, Tilda, Billie, Lilly, Fay
To show our sentiment unspoken
Please take this little token
(dance break)
(Chorus)
[JIMMY]
I hope you've missed me as I missed you
Dear little girl
I was lonesome; were you lonesome too
Dear little girl?
Now that I am here again
I could jump for joy
With such friends it's clear again:
I'm a lucky boy
Make me happy, tell me this is true
Dear little girl
Say you've missed me much as I missed you
Dear little girl
