I WANT YER, MA HONEY. Copyright, 1895, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words and Music by Fay Templeton. 
When de banjo's a-strummin' and de darkies a-hummin'. Den I want yer, ma honey, yes, I do; I'm a-thinkin' oh yer daily, dressed so sweet and also gaily, And my heart is forever true to you; I'm a-thinkin' ob yer sadly, 'cos' I love yer mighty madly, And I don't know what to do; So come back to please me, don't try for to tease me, 'Cos' I want yer, ma honey, yes, I do. 
Refrain. I want yer, ma honey, yes, I want yer mighty badly; I'm a-longin' for yer daily, 'cos' I love yer mighty madly; So come back to please me, don't try for to tease me, 'Cos' I want yer, ma honey, yes, I want yer, want yer, want yer; 'Cos' I want yer, ma honey, yes, I do. 
When de stars am a-gleamin' and de birds am a-dreamin'. Den I want yer, ma honey, yes, I do; For I love yer ev'ry minute, and nobody else is in it, And my heart is forever true to you; Den don't linger longer, 'cos' my love is grow in' stronger, And I don't know what to do; So come back, my lady, my love and my baby, 'Cos' I want yer, ma honey, yes, I do. 
Refrain. I want yer, ma honey, yes, I want yer ev'ry minute; I'm a-thinkin' oh yer daily, and nobody else is In it; So come back, my lady, my love and my baby, 'Cos1 I want yer, ma honey, yes I want yer, want yer, want yer; 'Cos' I want yer, ma honey, yes I do.
