You Ain't Mad, Bill, Are You?

There used to be a little boy who had a sweetheart dear,
And though he was her pride and joy his frown she grew to fear;
Now sometimes it happened, when at their play, my master would get mad,
And when he'd turn to go away, she'd say with smile so sad:

Refrain.
"You ain't mad, Bill, are you? Say you're not mad with me;
Don't you know I love you? Look at me, dear, and see-
You ain't mad, Bill, are you? I'll do just what you will."
And as he'd slowly turn to her she'd kiss that selfish Bill.

They older grew as years went by, and lovers they became,
And Bill, the rogue, who was quite sly, kept up the same old game;
For sometimes, of course, they'd disagree, And Bill would want his way;
He'd turn to go and she don't see, he waits for her to say:

Refrain.
"You ain't mad, Bill, are you? Say you're not mad with me;
Don't you know I love you? Look at me, dear, and see-
You ain't mad, Bill, are you? I'll do just what you will."
And as he'd slowly turn to her shed kiss that selfish Bill.

Time passed on, for, you know, time flies, and married they became;
But time had opened Mary's eyes and she saw through Bill's game.
Now when he tries to look severe and frown, and starts off in a huff,
Why, Mary simply turns him down and calls his little bluff.

Refrain.
"You ain't mad, Bill, are you? You can't impose on me;
Don't you think I know you? Look at me, Bill, and see-
You ain't mad, Bill, are you? You only want your way."
And when he turned her lips to kiss she said, "Don't get so gay."
