One A.M. One A.M. It told me of my promise when I left you in the hall Before I knew 'twas Two A.M. Three A.M. Four A.M. But you know I promised to be home at ten So I didn't go home at all [2nd verse:] Jack remarked, "It's eas'ly seen that I'm not all to blame My explanation's tame, it's true tho' just the same Much rather than disturb you from your slumber so divine I lingered just to pass away the time And then again you see, I didn't take the key Which proves that my intentions were the best I even said a pray'r that you might not despair Besides I knew how much you needed rest": [3rd verse:] Jack had been forgiven and the future seemed so bright Until the other night, his May was not in sight She went to see a sick friend but had promised to come back At sixty minutes after nine, to Jack At sixty minutes past next morn she came at last Her op'ning speech was "I've been with my friend Because they said she'd die, I wanted to be nigh And so I waited for the coming end": Related Lyrics Random lyrics: I Never Had A Chance (1934), I Poured My Heart Into A Song, I Say Its Spinach (And The Hell With It), I Threw A Kiss Into The Ocean (1942), I Used To Be Color-Blind, I Used To Play It By Ear (1965), I Want To Be In Dixie (18 Jan 1912), I Want To Go Back To Michigan (Down On The Farm) (, I Wish That You Was My Gal, Molly (14 Oct 1909), Id Like My Picture Took, Id Rather Lead A Band, Ill Capture Her Heart, Ill See You In C-U-B-A (1920), Ill Share It All With You, Im A Bad, Bad Man, Im A Happy Married Man (2 May 1910), Im Afraid, Pretty Maid, Im Afraid (6 Feb 1912), Im An Indian Too, Im Beginning To Miss You (1949), Im Getting Tired So I Can Sleep, Im Going On A Long Vacation (12 Oct 1910), Im Marching Along With Time (1938), Im On My Way Home (1926), Im Playing With Fire (1932), Im Putting All My Eggs In One Basket, Im Sorry For Myself, Ive Got A Sweet Tooth Bothering Me (1916), Ive Got My Captain Working For Me Now (1919), Ive Got My Love To Keep Me Warm, Ive Got Plenty To Be Thankful For, Ive Got To Have Some Lovin Now (4 Mar 1912), If All The Girls I Knew Were Like You (15 Nov 1912, If I Had My Way, Id Live Among The Gypsies (1917), If I Had You (1 May 1914), If I Thought You Wouldnt Tell (14 Oct 1909), If Thats Your Idea Of A Wonderful Time (22 Jun 19, If The Managers Only Thought The Same As Mother (1, If You Believe (1940), If You Dont Want Me (24 Sep 1913), If You Dont Want My Peaches (Youd Better Stop Sh, If You Havent Got An Ear For Music, In My Harem (1 Feb 1913), Innocent Bessie Brown (5 Oct 1910), International Rag, The (12 Aug 1913), Is He The Only Man In The World?, Is There Anything Else I Can Do For You?
