If I Only Had a Brain
I could wile away the hoursConferrin' with the flowersConsultin' with the rainAnd my head I'd be scratchin'While my thoughts were busy hatchin'If I only had a brainI'd unravel any riddleFor any individ'leIn trouble or in painWith the thoughts you'd be thinkin'You could be another LincolnIf you only had a brainOh, I would tell you whyThe ocean's near the shoreI could think of things I never thunk beforeAnd then I'd sit and think some moreI would not be just a nuffin'My head all full of stuffin'My heart all full of painI would dance and be merryLife would be a ding-a-derryIf I only had a brain Aus Songtexte Mania
