Honey, I've been thinking,
about the cozy little flat,
the one we'll soon be looking at,
to furnishing with this and that;
Honey, I can picture,
the happy smile upon your face,
when we both get started,
furnishing up the place,
My dearie

I'll hang the picture on the wall,
you'll hold the chair so I don't fall,
my honey,
while I lay the carpet
in the dining room
you'll be busy with a broom;
I'll place the dishes on the shelf,
you'll change them, dear,
to suit yourself;
when ev'rything is furnished there,
we'll cuddle in the morris chair,
we'll be such a happy pair,
furnishing a home for two.

I'll hang the picture on the wall,
you'll hold the chair so I don't fall,
my honey,
while I lay the carpet
in the dining room
you'll be busy with a broom;
I'll place the dishes on the shelf,
you'll change them, dear,
to suit yourself;
when ev'rything is furnished there,
we'll cuddle in the morris chair,
we'll be such a happy pair,
furnishing a home for two.

You'll do all the shopping,
'twill help you pass the time away,
that's how you'll spend most of the day,
including all my hard earned pay;
we will have a parrot,
so when I have to go away,
you will think I'm near you,
I'll teach the bird to say:
"I love you."

I'll hang the picture on the wall,
you'll hold the chair so I don't fall,
my honey,
while I lay the carpet
in the dining room
you'll be busy with a broom;
I'll place the dishes on the shelf,
you'll change them, dear,
to suit yourself;
when ev'rything is furnished there,
we'll cuddle in the morris chair,
we'll be such a happy pair,
furnishing a home for two.

you'll change them, dear,
