American Old Time Song Lyrics: 24 Have You Seen My Girl

Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 24

Have You Seen My Girl?

I've lost the girl that I adore,
Have you seen her?
Honest, though she's rather poor,
Have you seen her?
This timid maid she got mislaid
While out the other day,
And as I go along the street,
I shout out all the way:

Chorus.
She's a great, big, tall girl,
On her chin she's got a dimple,
Rare, fair, square girl,
On her nose she's got a freckle.
Perhaps gone this morn,
I tell you she's a pearl,
But all I want to know is,
Have you seen my girl?

I've printed bills to give away,
Have you seen her?
I'm shouting for her night and day,
Have you seen her?
If you should meet her in the street,
You'll tell this little maid,
Is that young lady I can't find,
Who's stolen, lost or mislaid.-Chorus.

She is a most peculiar elf,
Have you seen her?
She's lost her senses and herself,
Have you seen her?
If she's committed suicide,
Or in the jail should be,
You'll know by these directions, that-
The girl belongs to me.-Chorus

In vain for my sweetheart I sigh,
Have you seen her?
And that is why I often cry,
Have you seen her?
You'd never miss her in a crowd,
Unless you are a fiat,
You're bound to know the lady,
For the simple reason that-Chorus.
