[1st verse:] I was blue and melancholy And I knew that it was folly To be feeling so sad When I ought to be glad So I sent a little letter Off it went, I'm feeling better Got an answer today Ev'rything is okay [Refrain:] Why is the sun shining brighter? I'm on my way home, I'm on my way home Why is my heart feeling lighter? I'm on my way home, I'm on my way home Why did I buy something nice at the store Something that she'll adore? Can't you guess who it's for? It's for someone with hair growing whiter Who's happy because I'm on my way home [2nd verse:] Not so sweet are things that you chew SongtexteWhen you eat upon a "choo-choo" They keep opening cans I've got different plans When it's time to go to supper I'll just climb into an upper Till the morning and then I'll start eating again [Patter:] I've been shopping and I'll put you wise I've got packages of ev'ry size Here's a half a dozen knitted ties For my brother and another Here's a parasol that's very plain For my pretty little sister Jane Here's a nifty little walking cane For my father but I'd rather Not Tell you what But there's one package more That I bought at the store Can't you guess who it's for? It's for someone with hair growing whiter who's happy because I'm on my way home Aus Songtexte Mania
