Lyrics

1. Any time I want a little kiss from you
Mother's always in the way
When our lips begin to pout
Brother Bill walks in and out
Father comes in with a smile
And says, "Hello"
Just to spoil our kissing game
They think they're smart
But, oh! sweetheart
We'll fool them just the same

Chorus
Meet me at the station
Where the trains come and go, oh!
Make believe I'm your relation
And I just came in to see the city
Don't you forget to treat me pretty
Greet me, when you meet me
Like I've been away a year
We'll kiss "goodbyes" and kiss "helloes"
With every train that comes and goes
So meet me at the station, dear

2. Someone must have told
Your mother of our scheme
I think that she's getting wise
She just told your sister Bess
To take the long train off your dress
Daddy said your brother
Had a brand new job
Gateman on the B. and O.
The Erie line is twice as fine
Besides it's twice as slow
