American Old Time Song Lyrics: 37 At Your Service
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 37
AT YOUR SERVICE!
By J. P. Skelly. Composed for Miss Ella Wesner.
The pink of affability, they tell me that I am;
As mild as any daisy and as gentle as a lamb.
To please the friends around me you will find me e'er at hand.
And when there's sport, of any sort, my time you may command.
Chorus.
I'm always at your service, always happy and gay.
With cares I'm never nervous-I laugh them all away;
If you are in for jollity, or for a quiet little spree,
Just take a jaunt some time with me-I'm always at your service!
To drive you through the park some day behind my tandem team;
To join you at Delmonico's for collipops and cream;
To wager on the winning horse-and lose the bet with graceYou'll find me ready every time-I go the lumtum pace!- Chorus.
My heart was captured by a maid, that I can ne'er forget;
To marry her I was afraid, tho' caught in Cupid's net.
In fact, to stay a bachelor has ever been my aim-
But tho' we are not wedded-still she's with me all the same!
Chorus.
She's always at your service, always happy and gay;
With cares she's never nervous-she laughs them all away.
If you are in for jollity, or for a quiet little spree,
Just take a jaunt some time with her-she's always at your service!
