There's a scandal in the neighborhood
And it's all about Julie brown
It seems a long lost cousin Jeremiah
Had lately arrived in town
Now when Julie's fella came to call
and saw them kissing
He started home at once
But Julie said I'm surprised at you
Don't go acting like a dunce
Why He's a cousin of mine a cousin of mine
You're liable for to see him here any old time
He's a cousin of mine a cousin of mine
Go on he's a cousin of mine
Now when Julie had explained
her relationship
He said Honey that may be so
But this fella
don't look like a thirty second cousin
That I met here a week ago
Julie smiled at him
and joined her cousin sad
And as they slowly walked away
He heard him ask
Who was that fellaa??
And he heard his Julie say
Why He's a cousin of mine a cousin of mine
You're liable for to see him here any old time
He's just a cousin of mine a cousin of mine
Go on he's a cousin of mine
Would I fool you
Go on he's a cousin of mine
