Yip’s Work

Quote of the Month

First you like ‘em, then you love ‘em,
When you love ‘em, then you let ‘em,
When you let ‘em, then you lose ‘em,
But you start all over again.

First they pet you, then they get you,
When they get you, they regret you,
And I’ll bet you, they forget you,
But you start all over again.

Lyric excerpt: “You Start All Over Again”
Unpublished lyric sheet (1929); music by Jay Gorney
Yip worked on this lyric idea several times in his early songwriting days. In an alternate version “Dawg gone ‘em!” replaces “But you start all over again.”
