<br>

Never saw you look quite so pretty before<br>

Never saw you dressed quite so lovely what's more<br>

I could hardly wait to keep our date this lovely Easter morning<br>

And my heart beat fast as I came through the door<br>

For<br>

<br>

In your Easter bonnet, with all the frills upon it<br>

You'll be the grandest lady in the Easter parade<br>

<br>

I'll be all in clover and when they look you over<br>

I'll be the proudest fellow in the Easter parade<br>

<br>

On the Avenue<br>

Fifth Avenue<br>

The photographers will snap us<br>

And you'll find that you're<br>

In the rotogravure<br>

<br>

Oh, I could write a sonnet about your Easter bonnet<br>

And of the girl I'm taking to the Easter parade<br>

<br>

[alternate bridge for Great Britain:]<br>

To the Park we'll go<br>

Round Rotten Row<br>

The photographers will snap us<br>

And then you'll be seen<br>

In the smart magazine<br>

<br>
