Mother dear,
it's time I had a little talk with you.

About your future

F 
Bb 
Mother dear, the only thing I ever want to do
F 
Bb 
is just grow up and be
C 
F 
somebody's wife.
Dm 
C 
Ah, me.
D 
I figured it would come
Gm 
to this.
F 
What every young girl wants
Em 
is wedded bliss.
Dm 
And you better teach me plenty,
because when I reach twenty,
Bb 
F 
I'd rather be a Mitzitz than a Mitz.
Db 
Well, once I met a fellow,
Gb 
Db

and then I fell in love,

while counting stars above?

washing the    windows

And cabbage   was never

my fa vorite perfume
Dm

Hang out the laundry,

mop up the floor
Dm

Polish the silver and run to the store

He always brought me orchids
Dm 
G 
C 
And things that I adored

Last week I had a birthday
Dm 
He gave me a brand new ironing board,
G

darn those potatoes
C

are so hard to peel
Ddim 
G 
C 
Just burned my hands on a
roast leg of veal,

that man in the moon
C

is a horrible heel
D 
G 
C 
Love is the darndest thing,

I make the nicest dinner

working late
Fdim 
Two lonely women,
Em 
Ebdim 
oh where is that guy?

Brahms' lullaby

there's mud in your eye
