I don't know how to tell her that I didn't get that raise in pay today |
|
And I know how much she wanted the dress in Baker's window |
|
And it breaks my heart to see her have to wait |
|
And cancel all her plans she made to celebrate |
|
But I can count on her to take it with a smile and not a frown |
|
She knows that life has its little ups and downs |
|
Like ponies on a merry-go-round |
|
And no one plants the grass green every time but she don't mind |
|
She wears a gold ring on her finger and it's mine |
|
The new house plans we've had so long |
|
I guess will gather dust another year |
|
And the daffodils are blooming that she planted way last fall |
|
Upon the hill and over by the gate |
|
And Lord knows I hate to say again we'll have to wait |
|
But you can bet that she'll just take it with a smile and not a frown |
|
She knows that life has its little ups and downs |
|
Like ponies on a merry-go-round |
|
And no one plants the grass green every time but she don't mind |
|
She wears a gold ring on her finger and I'm so glad that it's mine |
|
She wears a gold ring on her finger and I'm so glad that it's mine |
|
That it's mine |
|
I'm so glad it's mine, I'm so glad it's mine |
|
I'm so glad it's mine, I'm so glad it's mine |
|
I'm so glad it's mine, I'm so glad |
