Call Again 17 Jun 1912 lyrics

[1st verse:]
Charlie Brown caught in the rain
Stopped to call on Mary Jane
Knocked upon the door and then explained, `I`ve got
No umbrella, help a fellow`
`Come right in,` said Mary Jane
Charlie did and when the rain
Stopped outside, he softly cried, `Goodbye, I can`t remain
I thank you much,` he sighed
And Mary Jane replied

[chorus:]
Call again, you`re welcome as the flowers in the springtime
Anytime it showers and it rains like sin
Come right in
Sit down on my lap and cure your rheumatism
I`ll be up until the early hours
Honey, maybe after then
I`ll tell you the rest of the tale I didn`t finish
When you call again

[2nd verse:]
Charlie married Mary Jane
But at home he can`t remain
Charlie got a job that only gets him home
Ev`ry summer, he`s a drummer
After Charlie makes a heap
He comes home to take a peep
One night Charlie heard his wifey talking in her sleep
The name she called was Fred
And this is what she said

[2nd chorus:]
Call again, you`re welcome as the flowers in the springtime
Anytime it showers and it rains like sin
Come right in
Sit down, hon`, my husband won`t be home till August
I`ll be up until the early hours
Honey, maybe after then
I`ll finish the song that my husband interrupted
When you call again
