Although we're called a people of serious mind,
it is often we dance, it is often we
And being as human as all humankind,
we aren't superior to heaven a fling.
I'm taking the fling of a lifetime,
the fling of a husband and wife time.
I again thought to end the wedding ring.
Barney lassie was my heel and ring.
No chance was I chancing,
I'm not the man you dangle on a string
Connie waiting for the real,
Though I danced each girl
In the fling I was flung with you
Oh, now my heart is brancin' gay
As a lark and happy as a king
The years I'll weather, in the hame or on the heather,
with my one and only healing fling.
no special lot I was encouragin'
No blunts I was bluntsin',
well nothin' really worth a mention
For been a -watchin', a -waitin' for the real,
Though they spoke me soft
To this lucky lass in the
fling I was flung with you.
Oh, now, my heart is brunt,
and nothin' about you I'd be alterin'.
The years I'll wither, in the hem or the heather,
with me one and only heel and foot.
