i ■ IF I KNEW YOU AND YOU KNEW ME ' ' ^^:-i 



If I knew you and you knew me, 

 'Tis seldom we would disagree; 

 But, never having yet clasped hands, 

 We might, perhaps, not understand 

 That each intends to do what's right. 

 And treat each other "honor bright." 

 How little to complain there'd be 

 If I knew you and you knew me I 



Or when some goods you "fire back," 

 Or make a "kick" on this or that, 

 We'd take it in good part, you see. 

 If I knew you and you knew me. 

 With customers six thousand strong , 

 Occasionally things go wrong — 

 Sometimes oUr fault, sometimes theirs — 

 Forbearance would aecrease all cares. 

 Kind friend, how pleasant things would be 

 It I knew you and you knew me I 



If e'er we ship you by mistake, •• . 



Or in your bill some error make. 



From irritation you'd be free 



If I knew you and you knew me. 



Or when the checks don't come on time, 



And customers send us nary a line. 



We'd wait without anxiety 



If I knew you and you knew me! 



So let us trust, rely, confide. 

 Have firm good faith on either side. 

 Confidence to each other give — 

 Living ourselves, let others live; 

 And any time you come this way. 

 That you will call, we hope and pray; 

 Then face to face we each shall be 

 And I'll know you and you'll know me.
