Johnny Mercer - Huggin' and a Chalkin' lyrics

I got a gal that's mighty sweet With big blue eyes and tiny feet Her name is Rosabelle Malone And she tips the scale at twenty stone Oh, gee, but ain't it grand to have a girl so big and fat That when you go to hug her, you don't know where you're at You have to take a piece of chalk in your hand And hug a ways and chalk a mark to see where you began One day I was a-huggin' and a-chalkin' and a-chalkin' and a-huggin' away When I met another fella with some chalk in his hand Comin' around the other way over the mountain Comin' around the other way Oh Gee, it ain't so grand to be a girl so big and fat That when you go to hug me you don't know where you're at I have to take a piece of chalk in my hand And hug away and chalk a mark to see where I began Now where is that chalk? Ah, here it is I'll put one cross here, and another one here Darling Ah, but seriously you know that I'm crazy about you And I mean all of you, every little bit We both feel we're meant for each other Yet when we walk through the street people think That I'm out with my mother One day I was a-huggin' and a-chalkin' and a-beggin' her to be my bride When I met another fella with some chalk in his hand Comin' around the other side, It was Lou Praeger Comin' around the other side
