In your Eas ter bon net, with all the frills up on it, you’ll be the grand est la dy in the Eas ter pa rade.

I’ll be all in clo ver and when they look you o ver I’ll be the proud est fel low in the Eas ter pa rade.

On the Av e nue,

Fifth Av e nue,

the pho to graph ers will snap us.

And you’ll find that you’re in the ro to gra vure.

Oh, I could write a son net a bout your Eas ter bon net and of the girl I’m tak ing to the Eas ter pa rade.
