Well I’m just a gentleman caller
but I’m in love with the lady for sure
And she’s in love with me
You ask me how I know and I say fellas sometimes you’ve just do
Like the last time and like the time before it
And my hearts been livin’ in squalor
But you can help me move out of this place
And this place looks good
I’m bringing nothing but kindness for ya
when I come from walking out of the woods
Like the last time and like the time before it
Just like last time and all the other times that I did
When I put up that fence and chased away the rabbits
And I pulled up the potatoes and pulled up all the carrots
And I cleaned up from the dinner and put the water on for tea
Don’t make me go back into the town and do ugly
Well I’m just a gentleman caller
But I’m in love with the woman it’s true
And she’s in love with me
You ask me how I know and I says fellas sometimes you just do
