People Will Say We're In Love

Why do they think up stories that link my name with yours?
 Why do the neighbors gossip all day behind their doors?
 I know a way to prove what they say is quite untrue
 Here is the gist, a practical list of dont's for you
 Don't throw bouquets at me
 Don't please my folks too much
 Don't laugh at my jokes too much
 People will say we're in love
 Don't sigh and gaze at me
 Your sighs are so like mine
 Your eyes mustn't glow like mine
 People will say we're in love
 Don't start collecting things
 Give me my rose and my glove
 Sweetheart, they're suspecting things
 People will say we're in love
 Some people claim that you are to blame as much as I
 Why do you take the trouble to bake my favorite pie?
 Grantin' your wish I carved our initials on that tree
 Just keep a slice of all the advice ya give so free
 Don't praise my charm too much
 Don't look so vain with me
 Don't stand in the rain with me
 People will say we're in love
 Don't take my arm too much
 Don't keep your hand in mine
 Your hand feels so grand in mine
 People will say we're in love
 Don't dance all night with me
 'Til the stars fade from above
 They'll see it's all right with me
 People will say we're in love
 Hey! If there's anybody out and
 around this yard that can hear my voice
 I want 'em to know that Miss Laurey Williams is my girl!
 Curly!
 Hah-ha! And she went and got me to ask her to marry me!
 They'll hear you all the way to Catoosie!
 Let 'em!
 Let people say we're in love
 Who cares what happens now?
 Just keep your hand in mine
 Your hand feels so grand in mine
 Let people say we're in love
 Starlight looks well on us
 Let the stars beam from above
 Who cares if they tell on us
 Let people say we're in love
