I got a girl named Boney Maronie
She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni
Ought to see her rock and roll with her blue jeans on
She's not very fat, just skin and bones.
I love her and she loves me. Oh how happy now we can be,
making love underneath the apple tree.
Well, I told her mama and her papa too
Just exactly what I wanna do
I wanna get married on a night in June
And rock and roll by the light of the silvery moon
She's my one and only, she's my heart's desire
She's a real upsetter, she's a real live wire
Everyone turns when my baby walks by,
She's something to see, really catches the eye.

Well, buzz, buzz, buzz goes the bumble bee
Tweele, deedle, dee goes the bird
But the sound of your little voice, darling
Is the sweetest sound I've ever heard
I've seen the beauty of the red, red rose
Seen the beauty when the sky is blue
Seen the beauty of the evening sunset
But the beauty of you
Sweet as the honey from the honeycomb
Sweet are the grapes from the vine
But there's nothing as sweet as you, darling
And I hope someday you'll be mine
