Lerner Alan Jay - Waitin` For My Dearie слова песни
Fiona Many a lassie as ev`ryone knows`ll Try to be married before twenty-five. So she`ll agree to most any proposal. All he mus` be is a man, an` alive. I hold a dream an` there`s no compromisin` I know there`s one certain laddie for me. One day he`ll come walkin` o`er the horizon: But should he not, then an old maid I`ll be. Foolish, ye may say. Foolish I will stay. Waitin` for my dearie, an` happy am I to hold my heart till he comes strollin` by. When he comes, my dearie, one look an` I`ll know That he`s the dearie I`ve been wantin` so. Though I`ll live forty lives till the day he arrives, I`ll not ever, ever grieve. For my hopes will be high that he`ll come strollin` by; For ye see, I believe That there`s a laddie weary, and wanderin` free, Who`s waitin` for his dearie: Me! 1st Girl What do ye do while ye`re waitin` around For your lad to come your way? Fiona Well, when no one is lookin`, ye kneel on the ground, An` ye pray an` pray an` pray! 2nd girl But when lassies sit an` have no men, Oh, how long becomes the night. Fiona But I fear the night is longer when the lad`s no` right. Waitin` for my dearie is sweeter to me Than wooin` any laddie on the lea. Girls Dreamin` of your dearie, an` idlin` the day Fiona That`s how I am an` how I`ll ever stay. Though I`ll live forty lives till the day he arrives, I`ll not ever, ever grieve. For my hopes will be high that he`ll come strollin` by; For ye see, I believe Fiona and Girls That there`s a laddie weary, an` wanderin` free, who`s waitin` for his dearie: Fiona Me!
