i wish i was a pilot on my own steam powered aereoplane
i'd fly right up in the sky and never look back
i'd have me a hat that said "i got me a steam powered aereoplane",
it'd look like a cowboy hat but it would be a pilot's.
sitting on a 747 watching them clouds go by
can't tell if the sun is shining, or if it's raining.
i'd rather be on a deck chair high above kansas city
on a genuine old fashioned automatic
spap
if i had me my own steam poered aereoplane
i'd fly right up in the sky and never look back
i'd fly by the mountains, over the sea
head right home be with my baby every night by the fire

i met my gal by the glass works wall
the whole town was screaming "hey babe, get over here"
i kissed my girl to the jealousy of all
you dirty old town
everyone was watching us under the lights
i heard them screaming when i bit her ear
i kissed my girl right there that night
that dirty old town
i loved her a long time before that night
they all said "you're crazy man, she ain't gonna treat you right"
but she's my gal, yeah that's who i love
you dirty old town

polish vocabulary
gonna have us some potato
gonna have us some eggs
maybe get a little olive
maybe get us a little bread
pass over that szynka
and a bit marchewki too
we're gonna have ourselves
a little polish lunch stew
we'll sit in the corner nook
just we three
with bunny on the floor
we don't have to sweep no more
just don't you let them ziomki see
or we'll have no roof above us
our landlord's as mean as can be.
it's a beautiful day
ain't got no reason to complain
we live up at the foot of the mountain
we got the valley to survey
we'll clean off the table
like all them good Polish do
right after we have ourselves
a little polish lunch stew

ain't you heard of cotton eyed joe?
he came to town a long time ago.
legend had it before he was around
happiness was easily found
he was so helpful
he had energy to spare.
worked 10 men's days in the field
before the morning sun appeared
hadn't a been for cotton eyed joe
i'd been married a long time ago
where'd you come from
where'd you go
where you been cotton eye'd joe
walkin one night by Avery hill
holdin her hand and lookin in her eyes
and promising the moon everthing about it
just a hollow design
how do i know the story, you ask this of me
i'm just an old woman with short life before me
but i was a good lookin woman once, when i met that diamond, Joe
he took my heart and ran it around so the story goes

darling i'm a happy man
a happy man still gets the blues
happy knows what love is
it's something that you gotta choose
ain't no telling what darkness
lies in hearts of other men
they will do what they will
and it don't matter where you stand
you know i'm a happy man
sun comes up in the morning
and in the night it goes back down
jesus tells the truth
but a judas can always be found
tell me once my darling
tell me and i'll know it's true
keep me round my darling
ain't no telling what we can do.
