I was strollin' up and down the street
Goin' along, hummin' a song
Who'd have thought that I would ever meet sweet little you?
Why, how do you do?

Say, rosy cheeks,
Where ya goin' with those rosy cheeks?
I've been chasin' you for weeks and weeks,
Rosy cheeks.
You surely got me goin',
My love for you is growin'

Rosy cheeks,
When you smile a little dimple peeks at me
It seems to say beware,
But I don't care
I love you, rosy cheeks

Henry Halstead first made a name for himself by leading a band at the St. Francis Hotel at 335 Powell Street in San Francisco from 1922 to 1925.
