Funny When You Feel That Way

I can't forget how queer I felt
When first I fell in love
I had a most sincere attack
Just 5 squeezing a lady's 1 glove

Her lovely hand was in it
As I waltzed around so gay
I thought myself in paradise
It's funny when you feel that way.

Refrain:It's funny when you feel that way
It's funny when you feel that way
I thought myself in paradise
It's funny when you feel that way

Again we met one afternoon
As we were all alone
I pumped up nerve to ask if she
Someday would be my own

She blushed and said go ask papa
And ask him if I may
I danced a cantor around the room
It's funny when you feel that way...

The old boy said that we might wed
And so he crowned my bliss
I shall be a double man
In about a month from this

Though it seemed to me somehow the time
Shall never pass away
For I long to hear those wedding bells
It's funny when you feel that way.
