THB BARTBNDBR'S GUIDE AND SONG BOOK

The Captivating Dude

H e walks along Fifth Avenue With steps of airy grace,

A look of limpid vacancy Upon hir baby face;

His cane he poses in his hand With novel attitude,

Hir collar reaches to his ears, This captivating " dude" I

Chorus :Look at the "dude," Charming young dude,

Sweet-scented " baby," Saucy and rude–

Co/lar so high, Pants to him glued,

Sweet captivating dude.

He ambles in his best make-up From noon till twilight gray ;

You'll meet him auywhere in tow n TF here fashio n holds its sway ;

He wears a rosebud in his breast And oft it is renewed,

He's sprinlcled over w ith perfume, This captivating " dude"! [Ch<>rus]

He's just too young t<> be a man, To<> old to be a boy,

And when he meets a beauty's glance, His bosom heaves w ith i<>y,

He says, "Ah, there!

y{)U

saucy thing!" He lisps a light " ta-ta,"

Oh! he's the very picture of A dandy " lah-de-da." [Che>rus]
