Can’t You Wait Till You Get Home (1927 Recording)

[Intro]
I'm gonna sing you a song entitled "I'm a delicatessen store proprietor
And if you don't smell it, we ain't got it"

[Verse]
Hattie and Harry decided to marry
So they went on their honey moon
She was romantic, he was a fanatic
Why, everywhere that they would go, she would wanna spoon
Now if he wanted to give her just a little kiss
She would hand him a line of jive, hm, 'twould go something like this:

Haha, oh stop, Harry, quit it
Oh, don't do that, wait

[Chorus 1]
Can't you wait till you get home?
Can't you wait until you're all alone?
I love you, Harry, goodness knows
But Harry, you know you are tearin' my clothes
Pull that stuff when you're all alone
I'll do it in the parlor when we get home
I love you, Harry, you know I do
Stop that, Harry, I mean you
Pull that when you're all alone
Just wait until you get home

[Chorus 2]
Say, can't you wait till you get home?
Just wait until you're all alone
I'm crazy about you, I see
Oh Harry, hee-hee-hee
Pull that when you're all alone
Say, I love you till the cows come home
Why, I'm crazy about you, goodness knows
I can't understand you, Harry, stop, ohh
Pull that when you're all alone
Can't you wait until you get home?

[Chorus 3]
Can't you wait till you get home?
Wait until you're all alone
Crazy about you, you know I [?]
I can't demonstrate my passion here
Pull that stuff when you alone
And I love you till the cows come home
I love you, Harry, that's alright
Wait, you'll get it once, sometimes twice
In the parlor all alone
Can't you wait till you get home?
