Geraniums In The Winder; Stonecutter Cut It On Stone

[Geraniums In The Winder]

Geraniums in the winder
Hydrangas on the lawn
And breakfast in the kitchen
In the timid pink of dawn.

And you to blow me kisses
When I'm headin' for the sea
We might have been a happy pair
Of lovers, mightn't have we?

And comin' home at twilight
It might have been so sweet
To take my catch of herring
And lay 'em at your feet.

I might have had a baby
What.

To dangle on my knee
But all these things
That might have been
Are never, never to be.

[Stonecutter Cut It On Stone]

I've never seen it yet to fail
I'll never see it fail
A girl who's in love with a virtuous man
Is doomed to weep and wail
Stonecutters cut it on stone
Woodpeckers peck it on wood
There's nothin' so bad for a woman
As a man who thinks he's good!

Nice talk!

My mother used to say to me
When you grow up, my son
I hope you're a bum like your father was
'Cause a good man ain't no fun!

Stonecutters cut it on stone
Woodpeckers peck it on wood
There's nothin' so bad for a woman
As a man who thinks he's good!

'T ain't so!
'T is true!
'T ain't so!
'T is true!

I've never seen it yet to fail
I'll never see it fail
A girl who's in love with any man
Is doomed to weep and wail.

They're even worse after they marry you!
You oughta give 'im that ring back, Carrie!
You'll be better off!
Well, he's a mighty, unmarried man
You should take 'im!

The clock just takes your life away
There's no relief in sight
It's cookin' an' it's scrubbin'
An' it's sewin' all day
An' God knows what in all night!

Stonecutters cut it on stone
Woodpeckers peck it on wood
There's nothin' so bad for a woman
As a man who's bad or good!
