American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
PLAIN LITTLE EVERY-DAY GIRL Copyright, 1896, by T. B. Harms & Co. Words and Music by William Jerome. 
My steady girl is not the kind they sing about nowadays, With eyes of blue and golden hair that poets love to praise; She's not as pretty as a picture hanging on the wall, For if she was, I'd really have no love for her at all. 
Refrain. My girl is a plain girl, my girl isn't proud, She's just what you'd call a fair looking girl, a girl that would pass in a crowd; She's not an angel from heaven, she'd not set your brain in a whirl; Site's a good, bright, all right, plain little every-day girl. 
She's just the kind of girl to make you happy all the while; She never makes you jealous, for on others she won't smile; A little dear, good, home-girl of the sort you read about, And that's the reason, all the time, her praises I must shout.-Refrain. 
Site's pure gold, eighteen carat, and that's good enough for me; She never puts on any airs like other girls you see; Her heart she gave me long ago, and I have bought the ring, And when I place it on her finger you will hear me sing:-Refrain.
