daisy buckët – long, long time lyrics
[intro]
i married a millionaire
he was fifty years older, but i didn’t care
i dreamed of the great romance it would be
well, it just goes to show you how wrong i can be
[verse 1]
what good’s the mink and diamond rings?
i miss those other things
it’s been a long, long time
every time i want a thrill
he takes another pill
it takes a long, long time
[chorus 1]
i fell for him because he was so handsome
his name was simpson, i thought he said samson
i’d trade the whole darn works today
for just one good substantial hey-hey
it’s been a long, long time
[post-chorus 1]
he puts on his purple pajamas
and he sprinkles himself with touche
i watch that poor fella preparing
for a part that he never will play
[verse 2]
he just brought me a string of pearls
i hope he ate the oysters, girls
it’s been a long, long time
he bought me a yacht, it’s shiny and new
i hope it’s got a healthy crew
it’s been a long, long time
[chorus 2]
at night, he takes me to the opera or the ballet
and all the while, i’m dreaming of a matinee
the days are long, the nights are longer
golly, i wish that he were stronger
it’s been a long, long time
[post-chorus 2]
i watch him burning the incense
and turning down all of the lights
always a dress rehearsal
and never an opening night
[outro]
i always knew i wasn’t getting gregory peck
but still, i didn’t think he’d be a physical wreck
so, girls, if you marry an old buckaroo
when you retire, take a book or two
’cause till he gets good and ready for you
you can finish the book!
it’ll be such a long, long time
