"Fly Around, My Pretty Little Miss" banjo and vocal by Lee Sexton, c. 1948.
[fast banjo]
When I see that girl of mine
She is nice and browdy[1]
When I see her now an then
She always tells me howdy
Fly around my pretty little miss,
Fly around my daisy
Fly around my pretty little miss,
Almost run me crazy.
When I see the girl of mine
she is from the south
She's so sweet the honey bees
Come swarm around her mouth.
Fly around my pretty little miss,
Fly around my daisy
Fly around my pretty little miss,
Almost run me crazy.
1. ? rhymes with howdy.
