A sweet tux-e-do girl you see,
Queen of swell so-ci-e-ty.
Fond of fun as fond can be,
When it's on the strict Q. T.
I'm not too young,
I'm not too old,
Not too tim-id, not too bold,
Just the kind you'd like to hold,
Just the kind for sport I'm told.

[Chorus] Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´

I'm a blush-ing bud of in-no-cence,
Pa-pa says at big expense,
Old maids say I have no sense
Boys de-clare I'm just im-mense,
Be-fore my song I do con-clude,
I want it strict-ly un-der-stood,
Tho' fond of fun, I'm nev-er rude,
Tho' not too bad I'm not too good.

[Chorus] Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
Ta - ra - ra Boom -der-e´
