Happy little day, Jimmy went away Met his little Jenny on a public holiday A happy pair they made, so decorously laid 'Neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade 'It's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air I'll weave my spell'
'Jenny will you stay - tarry with me pray Nothing 'ere need come between us tell me love, what do you say' 'Oh no I must away to my Mum in disarray If my mother should discover how I spent my holiday It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air I'll say farewell'
O Rock of Ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still O Lady Moon, shine down a little people magic if you will
Jenny pines away, writes a letter everyday 'We must ever be together, nothing can my love erase' 'Oh no I'm compromised, I must apologize If my lady should discover how I spent my holidays...' ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Tried to be your son and daughter rolled into one You said you'd equal any man for having your fun Now didn't you feel surprise to find The cap just didn't fit? The world expects a man To buckle down and to shovel shit
What'll you do for loving When its only just begun? I want you to be a woman
Tried to be a teacher and a fisher of men An equal Will you lead us all the same? Well I travelled around the world To find a brand new word for day Watching the time mustn't linger behind Pardon me I have to get away What'll you think of heaven If it's back from where you came? I want you to be a woman
