|
You can take the moon |
|
Gather up the stars |
|
And the robins that sing merrily |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
You can take the flowers |
|
Down in lovers lane |
|
And that sentimental poetry |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
Not for me, all that stuff |
|
The dreams that ruin your sleep |
|
Not for me, had enough |
|
Love is one thing you can keep |
|
You can take the plans |
|
And the wedding bells |
|
And whoever sings "Oh Promise Me" |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
'Cause love and I we don't agree |
|
(Bridge) |
|
Hansoms through the park |
|
Kisses in the dark |
|
All the promises made faithfully |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
And you won't go wrong |
|
If you take a song |
|
Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
Not for me, all that stuff |
|
Not for me, had enough |
|
You know what to do |
|
With good old "Tea for Two" |
|
And the girl for you, the boy for me |
|
Put 'em in a box |
|
Tie it with a ribbon |
|
Throw 'em in the deep blue sea |
|
'Cause love and I we don't agree |
