• • First we had a talk — — and then,
• • We sat by the fire — — and then,
• • It was getting warm and so,
• • We drew our chairs away from the fireglow.
• • Mother said: "Good night" — — and then,
• • We turned down the light — — and then,
• • We cuddled closer together,
• • And then we talked about the weather,
• • Yes we did (Yes we did!) — — not then.

• • Mae West performed the song in 1913 at Hammerstein's Victoria — — in their Roof theatre [Broadway and 42nd Street]. The top vaudeville house on the East Coast, it had 950 seats and was designed by J. B. McElfatrick & Sons. Hammerstein's Victoria was demolished in 1915.
