Lyrics:
We met nearly a week ago,
At the time we both didn't know.
But now we do, the courtship is through,
and we know what to do.
{singing}
We might go get a bite at the diner,
what else could be finer?
We'll then leave and go to the motion picture show, then we will with certainty know.
But when it's time to say goodbye, I'll not let you roam tonight.
I'll take you home tonight,
and not let you far from my sight
We could go to my place, we'll try not to make a sound.
You can put your socks on my dress, and we'll pussyfoot around.
I'll not let you roam tonight,
I'll take you home tonight, and not let you far from my sight.
When the sun seems to abound, we could head to the course and play a round.
I could hold your balls while you hold my tee, and we will both be filled with so much glee.
I'll not let you roam tonight,
I'll take you home tonight, and not let you far from my sight.
We could spend time in my kitchen, and I could bake for you a fancy feast, you will love the smell, and the rising yeast. I'll let you try my pie, and you'll say thanks, as long as I get to try your beans and frank.
I'll not let you roam tonight,
I'll take you home tonight, and not let you far from my sight.
You and I could get in the car, we wouldn't have to go very far. We'd pile in, never mind the pushin'
and rename your backseat the whoopee cushion.
I'll not let you roam tonight,
I'll take you home tonight, and not let you far from my sight.
We could visit the railroad yard, but the tracks are just too hard, people may think we go to far, but you can ride in my box car. You can travel for free, unlike the Super Chief there is no fee.
I'll not let you roam tonight,
I'll take you home tonight,
and not let you out of my sight.

What beautiful ladies......

Strange sound.......

[@spindalis79]

It's early 40s.

Poor use of AI. 40s sound, but not 40s musical structure.

[@spindalis79]

Thank you for the constructive criticism. To be truthful, I was attempting to reconstruct a snatch of song I heard in a dream in October of 2023. However, the tune of my subconscious had more of a mid-30s feel. This may account for the structure oddities of the music.

@@spindalis79 You're a POS, trying to "re write" music history with FAKE CONTENT
