Have You Met Miss Jones

Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby

It happened

I felt it happened

I was awake

I wasn't blind

I didn't think

I felt it happened

Now I believe in matter over mind.

And now you see we mustn't wait

The nearest moment that we marry is too late!

Have you met Miss Jones

Someone said as we shook hands

She was just Miss Jones to me

Then I said Miss Jones

You're a girl who understand

I'm a boy who must be free.

And all at once I lost my breath

And all at once was scared to death

And all at once I hold the earth and sky!

Now I met Miss Jones

And well keep on meeting till we die

Miss Jones and I
