He started a company   When he was a young man   Handsome, and like a reed so tall   With a face like an old photograph   She would fall for him   Fall for him   She would fall      She wore her mother's cocktail dress   With saddle shoes   She was pretty and she was small   She worked the switchboard   Down the hall from him   Down the hall      He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"   And that was how the wooing   And the winning began   He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"      Of course New York in those days   Was carriage rides and matinees   He took her to a ball   At the Waldorf Astoria   He would fall for her   Fall for her, he would fall      He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"   And that was how the wooing   And the winning began   He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"      You could hear them laugh   As they danced in their room   And the shadows on the avenue   Rose into a jealous moon   Which swung low in the dawn light   To see what was going on with those two      You keep on expecting   Something to go wrong   And nothing does   They still live in the house   Where we were born   Pictures of us kids   Hanging up all over the walls      And some say he built his empire   For wealth and fame   But if you ask him why   He'll say he did it all for her   All for her   All for her      He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"   And that was how the wooing   And the winning began   He said: "Hello little woman"   She said: "Hello big man"
