Mister Snow (from "Carousel")

歌詞

His name is Mister Snow and an up-standed man is he He comes home every night in his round-bottomed boat With a net full of herring from the sea An almost perfect beau, as refined as a girl could wish But he spends so much time in his round-bottomed boat That he can't seem to loose the smell of fish The first time he kissed me the whiff of his clothes Knocked me flat on the floor of the room But now that I love him, my heart's in my nose And fish is my favorite perfume Last night he spoke quite low and a fair-spoken man is he And he said, "Miss Pipperidge I'd like it fine if I could be wed with a wife And indeed, Miss Pipperidge, if you'll be mine I'll be yours for the rest of my life" Next moment we were promised And now my mind's in a maze For all it can do is look forward to That wonderful day of days When I marry Mister Snow The flowers'll be buzzin' with the hum of bees The birds'll make a racket in the church yard trees When I marry Mister Snow Then it's off to home we'll go And both of us'll look a little dreamy-eyed A driving to a cottage by the Oceanside Where the salty breezes blow He'll carry me across the threshold And I'll be as meek as a lamb Then he'll set me on my feet And I'll say kinda sweet "Well, Mister Snow, here I am" Then I'll kiss him so he'll know That evry'thin'll be as right as right can be A living in a cottage by the sea with me For I love that Mister Snow That young sea-faring bold and daring Big bewhiskered, overbearing, darling Mister Snow
