My very good friend, the milkman says
That I've been losing too much sleep
He doesn't like the hours I keep
So he suggests that you should marry me

My very good friend, the mailman says

That it would make his burden less

We both had the same address

So he suggests that you should marry me

And then there's a very friendly fellow who prints
All the latest real estate news
And every day he sends me blueprints
Of cottages with country views
My very good friends, the neighbors say
They've been watching little things I do
And they perceive that I love you
So I suggest that you should marry me

And every day he sends me blueprints

Of cottages with country views

And my very good friends, the neighbors say
They've been watching little things I do

So I suggest that you should marry me
