Lyrics
1. In an automobile with sweet Mollie O’Neil
Every Sunday I fly through the park
And the birds on the wing seem to know as they sing
That we’re out for a merry old lark
Up the riverside drive we just eat them alive
Reaching Claremont in time for a meal
Not a jollier pair in the crowd dining there
Then yours truly and Mollie O’Neil
CHORUS
You just auto see me and Molly
ride out in our automobile
You just auto see all the glances
And sly little Kisses we steal
You just auto come to our wedding
It’s bound to take place pretty soon
In a nice new machine I will go with my queen
On an automobile honeymoon
2. Down to gay Brighton Beach now and then
With my peach I go scorching along hand in hand
With your sweet baby-mine, boys it’s simply divine
It’s the grandest old game in the land
Other fellows may float with their girls in a boat
And some may think the trolley is fine
But to wise little me, they are all twenty-three
It’s the old bubble wagon for mine
