| [00:01.76] |
There once was a girl in the olden days |
| [00:05.42] |
|
| [00:06.15] |
Grew weary of men with a roving gaze |
| [00:10.84] |
|
| [00:11.68] |
Farewell fickle lovers goodbye goodbye |
| [00:15.72] |
For I'm falling in love with the man in the sky |
| [00:19.28] |
|
| [00:22.41] |
The man in the sky he walks in haste |
| [00:25.90] |
With three bright buckles around his waist |
| [00:29.60] |
And a great dog near and a little dog nigh |
| [00:33.66] |
|
| [00:34.57] |
And a steady gleam in his golden eye |
| [00:39.56] |
|
| [00:42.90] |
The girl went out on a windy hill |
| [00:45.28] |
|
| [00:46.25] |
And cried when the night was dark and still |
| [00:50.12] |
|
| [00:51.28] |
Come down come down you man in the sky |
| [00:55.18] |
Or else I am likely to pine and die |
| [01:00.42] |
|
| [01:01.50] |
The man in the sky didn't stop to talk |
| [01:05.03] |
He went right on with his evening walk |
| [01:08.73] |
And the great dog howled and the little dog whined |
| [01:12.83] |
|
| [01:14.01] |
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd |
| [01:19.82] |
|
| [01:22.06] |
She took to her bed from the light of the sun |
| [01:24.90] |
But when the sun his course had run |
| [01:28.90] |
|
| [01:29.97] |
She went to her window so high so high |
| [01:33.97] |
And waited and watched orion go by |
| [01:37.29] |
|
| [01:40.37] |
The man in the sky he walked in haste |
| [01:43.77] |
With three bright buckles around his waist |
| [01:47.39] |
And a great dog near and a little dog nigh |
| [01:51.65] |
|
| [01:52.50] |
And a gleam for her in his golden eye |
| [01:57.69] |
|
| [02:00.63] |
One night she stood on her windowsill |
| [02:02.89] |
|
| [02:03.77] |
And stepped right out on the highest hill |
| [02:07.34] |
|
| [02:08.11] |
And climbed to the place where the planets are |
| [02:12.19] |
And jumped from there to the nearest star |
| [02:16.58] |
|
| [02:18.22] |
She rocked in cassiopeia's chair |
| [02:22.11] |
And waked the dragon and roused the bear |
| [02:25.76] |
And the great dog howled and the little dog whined |
| [02:29.51] |
|
| [02:30.32] |
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd |
| [02:35.92] |
|
| [02:38.20] |
She found orion at last and then |
| [02:41.71] |
She found he was just like other men |
| [02:45.68] |
|
| [02:46.99] |
When on his shoulder her head she'd lay |
| [02:51.33] |
His eye was a million miles away |
| [02:56.05] |
|
| [02:57.78] |
The great dog howled and the little dog whined |
| [03:01.17] |
And the girl grew cold in the rising wynd |
| [03:04.93] |
And the dragon snarled and the lion roared |
| [03:09.30] |
|
| [03:10.25] |
And the stars flew by in a golden horde |
| [03:16.36] |
|
| [03:18.54] |
This tale has a moral brief to tell |
| [03:21.23] |
|
| [03:22.11] |
And I won't go on for you know it well |
| [03:25.71] |
|
| [03:26.97] |
Remember the girl in the days gone by |
| [03:30.89] |
Who fell in love with the man in the sky |
| [03:34.25] |
|
| [03:37.13] |
She rocked in cassiopeia's chair |
| [03:40.91] |
And waked the dragon and roused the bear |
| [03:44.58] |
And where they buried her I forget |
| [03:49.03] |
|
| [03:50.02] |
But the man in the sky isn't married yet |
