I cant forget how queer I felt
When first I fell in love
I had a most sincere tactor
Squeezing a lady's glove

Her lovely hand was in it
As I waltzed around so gay
I thought myself in paradise
It's funny when you feel that way

   It's funny when you feel that way
   It's funny when you feel that way
   I thought myself in paradise
   It's funny when you feel that way

Again we met one afternoon
As we were all alone
I pumped up nerve to ask if she
Would one day be my own

She blushed and said go ask poppa
And ask him if I may
I danced a cantor around the room
It's funny when you feel that way

   It's funny when you feel that way
   It's funny when you feel that way
   I danced a cantor around the room
   It's funny when you feel that way

The old boy said that we might we
And so he crowned my bliss
I shall be a double man
In about a month from this

Though it seemed to me somehow the time
Will never pass away
For I long to hear the wedding bells
It's funny when you feel that way

   It's funny when you feel that way
   It's funny when you feel that way
   I long to hear the wedding bells
   It's funny when you feel that way
