Oh honey
Picture me upon your knee,
With tea for two and two for tea,
Just me for you and you for me, alone!
Nobody near us, to see us or hear us,
No friends or relations
on weekend vacations
We won't have it known, dear,
That we own a telephone, dear.
Day will break and I'm gonna wake
and start to bake a sugar cake
for you to take for all the boys to see.
We will raise a family,
a boy for you , and a girl for me,
Can't you see how happy we will be.
(Picture you upon my knee)

(Nobody near us, to see us or hear us,)
(No friends or relations on weekend vacations)
(We won't have it known, dear,)
(That we own a telephone,)

Day will break and I'm gonna wake
and start to bake a sugar cake
for you to take for all the boys to see.
We will raise a family,
a boy for you, and a girl for me,
Oh can't you see how happy we will be.
(How happy we will be)

I can just hear Doris Day singing those lyrics as I sit here at my computer.
ReplyDeleteI love this song, and I love Doris Day! I just taught my little granddaughters how to sing Que Sera Sera, whatever will be, will be..... Guess what song will be next? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this, LaDonna. I'm not sure I ever really paid attention to the words! It's nice to see them in pring.
ReplyDeleteSweet! Good ole Doris Day...
ReplyDeleteLove the tea towel!

My Mom used to sing that song. Loved it. Thanks for the memories, La Tea Dah. Susan
