I Always Was Stuck On The Girls - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
I Always Was Stuck on the Girls. Copyright. 1894, by E. Saenger. Words by Arthur I. Lamb. Music by E. Lux. 
Of all the sweethearts I have had-and many lassies have a lad-I cherish recollections kind and bear them lovingly in mind; To me a canning little face that peeps between a mist of curie Will always lead a passing grace to any time, to any place. 
Chorus. Ah, me! I always was stuck on the girls; They peep between a mist of curls, They are our jewels and pearls; Ah, me! I always was stuck on the girls. 
Of all the sweethearts I have had-and some were good, and some were bad-I never, never will forget a little timid with eyes of jet; We were betroth'd for seven years, but quickly past each season whirls, A-lack-a-day for lovers' fears, we parted in a mist of tears.- Chorus. 
Of all the sweethearts I have had-and, after all, love's But a fad-It strikes me forcibly at times that love is naught but empty rhymes; And what a flimsy pack of cards that Cupid on the altar hurls. Experience true love retards, 'tis but a lay of moon-struck bards.-Chorus.
