The Calla Lily Song

Just a Calla Lily soaking up the morning

And silly me, I'm underneath the awning

Just waiting for the rain to fall

So it can pass and I can walk

Away from her sweet love and adoring

There's times you know your heart is overflowing

Like in the spring when all the grass is growing

And the Robin and the Whippoorwill

All day and night can eat their fill

And all the nights when the Moon is up and glowing

And I think it's fine

I think it's fine

That she's mine

I like to walk along the meadow in the evenings

It's something that I do that's worth repeating

Sometimes the wind is mellow

And the stars go on forever

And the thrush inside the nettle are a-sleeping

You see, in the city, everyone's a walker

Myrtle takes you down to knickerbocker

That is where I paid my dues

And everyone checks out your shoes

Oh man, it's hard to shake the blues when you got em

So I think it's fine

I think it's fine

That she's mine

Well, it's times like these I think of her a little

The window up and second from the middle

And when the light is on

She's probably sitting there alone

Just a-playing a little song upon her fiddle

And I think it's fine

I think it's fine

That she's mine
