Bessie! What's on your mind? Can it be? that things are good That things are fine Family, where are you? What hurts me, must surely hurt you too Daytime, it's coming up Something Is bound for you and me What it is, I don't know! Well have to wait and see Thaddeus He comes and goes He thinks i'm great He told me so Last I saw he was very tall And he grew a beard, oh boy You're growing older by the second Your head is filled With sentimental recollections They don't have the answers to your questions They dont have Bessie I dream of u Of carbonation Of two bats too A great big ocean As wide as the eye can see Maybe one day Hey! you'll marry me
