| You can take the moon, gather up the stars
 | 
| And the robins that sing merrily
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| You can take the flowers, down in lovers lane
 | 
| And that sentimental poetry
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie I’em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| Not for me, all that stuff
 | 
| The dreams that ruin your sleep
 | 
| Not for me, had enough
 | 
| Love is one thing you can keep
 | 
| You can take the plans and the wedding bells
 | 
| And whoever sings, «Oh, promise me»
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie I’em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| 'Cause love and I we don’t agree
 | 
| Hansoms through the park, kisses in the dark
 | 
| All the promises made faithfully
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| And you won’t go wrong if you take a song
 | 
| Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| Not for me, all that stuff
 | 
| The dreams that ruin your sleep
 | 
| Not for me, had enough
 | 
| Love is one thing you can keep
 | 
| You know what to do with good old «Tea for two»
 | 
| And the girl for you, the boy for me
 | 
| Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon
 | 
| Throw 'em in the deep blue sea
 | 
| 'Cause love and I we don’t agree |
