For Me and My Gal Lyrics

The bells are ringin', for me an' my gal,
The birds are singin' for me an' my gal,
Everybody's been knowin', to a weddin' they're goin'
An' for weeks they've been sewin' every Susie and Sal' . . .

They're congregatin' (ding, dong, ding, dong,)
For me an' my gal (ding, dong, ding, dong,)
The Parson's waitin' (ding, dong, ding, dong,)
For me and my gal (ding, dong, ding, dong,)
An' someday I'm gonna build a little home for two,

Or three or four, or more,
In Loveland, for me an' my gal . . .

See the relatives there, lookin' over the pair,
They can tell at a glance, it's a loving romance,
It's a wonderful sight, as the families unite,
See it makes the boy proud, as he says to the crowd . . .

The bells are ringin', for me an' my gal,
The birds are singin' for me an' my gal,
Everyone's been knowin' (all our friends and our relations!)
To a weddin' they're goin' (will be at the railroad station!)
An' for weeks they've been sewin' (or, they'll send congratulations!)
Every Susie and Sal' (. . . for me an' my gal!)

They're congregatin' for me an' my gal,
The Parson's waitin' for me and my gal,
An' someday I'm gonna build a little home for two,
(Or three or four,) or more, (or more!)
In Loveland! (Loveland!)
In Loveland! (Loveland!)
In Loveland, for me an' my gal!
