Tell me, oh please tell me
just what’s wrong to day,
my little one
Oh don’t hide, oh please don’t hide
just what’s on your mind, my little one
Do confide in me and do not hesitate
My little one
Hurry please, for I must know
just what the trouble is, precious little one
Let’s be happy once again and let’s forget,
my little one
Hand in hand let’s wander down
old lover’s lane,
my little one
Dry those tears and let me see
your
sweet winning smile, charming little one
Let me hold you and caress you
in these loving arms
Oh, don’t sulk my dear please,
Don’t sulk little one
