- Verse:
- I'm dis -con -tent -ed with
homes that are rent -ed so I have in -ven -ted my own;
- Dar -ling this place is
a lov -er's o -as -is, where life's wear -y chase is un -known.
- Far from the cry of the
cit -y where flow -ers pret -ty car -ess the streams,
- Cos -y to hide in, to live
side by side in, don't let it a -bide in my dreams.
-
- Chorus:
- Pic -ture you up -on my
knee just tea for two and two for tea,
- Just me for you and you
for me a -lone.
- No -bod -y near us to see
us or hear us, No friends or re -la -tions on week end va -ca
-tions,
- We won't have it known,
dear, that we own a tel -e -phone, dear,
- Day will break and you'll
a -wake and start to bake a sug -ar cake
- For me to take far all the
boys to see.
- We will raise a fam -i -ly,
A boy for you, A girl for me,
- Oh can't you see how hap
-py we would be?
