- Verse:
- I just saw a maniac, mainic,
mainic,
- Wild, and tearing his hair,
- Jumping like a jumpin' jack,
jumpin' jack, jumpin' jack,
- Child, you should have been
there,
- Laughed so loud I thought
that I would cave in,
- When I heard that silly,
daffy-dilly ravin':
-
- Chorus:
- Five Foot Two, Eyes Of Blue,
But oh, what those five foot could do,
- Has anybody seen my gal?
- Turned up nose, turned down
hose, Never had noother beaus,
- Has anybody seen my gal?
- Now if you run into a five
foot two, covered with fur,
- Diamond rings and all those
things Betcha' life it isn't her,
- But could she love, could
she woo? Could she, could she, could she coo?
- Has anybody seen my gal?
