Where did you get that hat?
How I came to get this hat
is very strange and funny.
Grandfather died and left to me
his property and money.
And when the willet was read out,
they told me straight and flat.
If I would have his money,
I must always wear his hat.
Where did you get that hat?
Where did you get that tile?
Isn't it a knobby one
and just the proper style?
I should like to have one
just the same as that.
Where are I going to shop?
Hello, where did you get that hat?
Where did you get that hat?
If I go to the opera house
in the opera season
There's someone sure to shout at me
without the slightest reason
If I go to a concert hall
to have a jolly spree
There's someone in the party
who is sure to shout at me
Where did you get that hat?
Where did you get that tile?
Isn't it a lovely one
in just the proper style?
I should like to have one just the
same as that
Wherever I go they shout at me,
did you get that hat?
Where did you get that hat?
At twenty -one I thought I would
to my sweetheart get married
The people in our neighbourhood said
too long we had tarried
So off to church we went right
quick determined to get wed
I had not long been in there
when the parson to me said
Where did you get that at?
When Colonel South
the millionaire
gave his last garden party
I was among the guests
who had a welcome true and hearty
The Prince of Wales was also
there
and my heart jumped with glee
When I was told the Prince
would like to have a word with me
I was duly presented to HRH,
who immediately exclaimed,
God, dear Chunky!
Well, did you get that hat?
Well, did you get that tie?
Isn't it a lovely one?
It's just the proper style
I should like to have one
just the same as that
Well, there I go, they shout, hello!
Well, did you get that hat?
