DON'T TAKE ME HOME
music by Harry Von Tilzer, lyrics by Vincent Bryan
Augustus J McCann
Was a hen-pecked married man
He'd been fighting with his wife
Since his married life began.
One night about half past three
While out upon a spree
A motor knocked him down and out
And nearly broke his knee.
The chauffeur raised Mac's head
Wife said "This man is dead"

McCann jumped up and said.
"Don't take me home
Please don't take me home
Tell me...2014-05-1401 min
