Good morning, my darling!
(Good day)
You’ve slept the whole night through my love
(You slept o’er half the day)
I made you hot cakes and cream, my dear.
(I found poison in your tea)
Look at the sunshine, my darling dear!
(I smell a storm today)
Oh what outings we ought to have!
(I’d rather live alone)
Chocolates for lunch and sugarplum pies!
(I’d sooner swallow a toad)
We’d watch the sunset in your arms my love.
(You kill me softly, my dear.)
