As I recall it  the sun was high
Yellow in the blue  blue sky
You couldn't quite make out this boy
He used life as a toy
In a Marie-Antoinette room
We were introduced soon
I was me and you were you
How do you do
Raggedy and tousle-haired
He looked as though he never cared
To run a comb where a comb should run
Freckles from the sun
Many good times we have had
We been happy  we been sad
But I think we both feel glad
That this life is so mad  mad  mad
As I recall it  the sun was high
If I remember  the sun was high
You couldn't quite make out this boy
He used life as a toy
Many good times we have had
We been happy  baby  we been sad
But I think we both feel glad
That this life is so mad
As I recall it  the sun was high
Yellow in the blue  blue sky
You couldn't quite make out this boy
He used life as a toy
Yeah
