Call Me Up Some Rainy Afternoon

Nellie Green met Harry Lee

At a masquerade the other night

He liked she and she liked he

Just a case of love at single sight

He took Nellie home that eve

Also took the number of her phone

Just before he took his leave

Nellie whispered in the cutest tone

Call me up some rainy afternoon

I'll arrange for a quiet little spoon

Think of all the joy and bliss

We can hug and we can talk about the weather

We can have a quiet little talk

I will see that my mother takes a walk

Mum's the word when we meet

Be a mason don't repeat

Angel eyes are you wise

Goodbye

He look'd wise then looked for rain

Sure enough it rained that Saturday

Give me three four five six Main

Nellie dear prepare I'm on my way

When he rang the front door bell

No one there responded to his call

Soon he heard his pretty Nell

Singing to somebody in the hall

Call me up some rainy afternoon

Then again how's the evening for a spoon

Call around tomorrow night

We can then put out that fire in the furnace

My mama will sure be out of town

She'll be entertained by Mister Brown

My Papa won't be 'round he will call on Missus Brown

Angel pet don't forget

Goodbye
