Story Behind The Song
This old 1909 song we sang a little different as kids every time we performed it at pie suppers, 4H club events etc.
Song Description
Actually there were two very long and uneventful verses to this song, but the verses never withstood the test of time, and so the chorus is all that is remembered, but the chorus, performed by Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, Julius LaRosa, many many more, if I had half a dozen songs that were recorded by so many people how happy would I be?

Lyrics
I WONDER WHO'S KISSING HER NOW
REVISED LYRIC by Ron Wilson2004
(Original 1909 lyric below)
I wonder who's kissing her now,
I wonder who's holding her how,
I Wonder who's looking into her eyes
Eyes I'll always idolize.
I wonder who's buying the wine,
For lips I know ought to be mine,
I wonder if she ever tells him the truth about me,
I wonder who's making love to her now.
ORIGINAL LYRIC
I wonder who's kissing her now,
I wonder who's teaching her how,
Wonder who's looking into her eyes,
Breathing sighs, telling lies;
I wonder who's buying the wine,
For lips that I used to call mine.
I wonder if she ever tells him of me,
I wonder who's kissing her now.
