KICKY KOO: YOU FOR ME--ME FOR YOU
© 1921
Lyrics: Sam M. Lewis, Joe Young; Music: Geo. W. Meyer
Sheet Music: J Albert & Son
Recording: Perfect Record by the Apollo Quartet
Underneath Hawaiian skies
Land of many sad goodbyes
Where the rippling waters play
Whisp'ring 'Why don't you stay?'
There beneath a coral moon
I heard someone croon:
Nestling in a crystal sea
Lies this isle of memory
Ev'ry ship that passes by
Hears somebody softly sigh
Wait for me my Kicky-koo
I'll return to you:
Chorus:
Kicky-koo Kicky-koo
You for me, me for you
Who will do your wooing;
When I'm gone all night long
I will miss your sweet song
Kicky-koo say you love me too
All the little stars above you
In Honolulu love you
Because I told them of you
They're gonna light my way back to you
Kicky-koo koo, Kicky-koo
Kicky-koo Kicky-koo
You for me, me for you
You'll be true, won't you
Kicky-koo
