Lyrics
Melon Collie Lassie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Boys from home forget to phone
And love is like a loan
Depending on the bending
And the mending of a moan
Melon Collie Lassie knows the needs of new who come
To see the Zuider Zee and then they float from one to some
Forever while she washes all the clothes are never clean
And if you ask her where you are it tends to make her mean
