Lyrics for Miss Mabee
Maybe Miss Mabee will Or maybe Miss Mabee won鈥檛 Maybe Miss Mabee will Or maybe Miss Mabee won鈥檛 Maybe she鈥檒l lace your boot Or maybe she鈥檒l polish your flute Or maybe she鈥檒l dig your root Or maybe she won鈥檛 give a hoot Miss Mabee told me to eat my tail It tasted awful Why do I listen to you, Miss Mabee? You commit nothing but I love you anyway Miss Mabee told me to strip And pace the six-pointed seal Muttering heehaw in Hebrew and who ha I did all that stuff, just as you ordained Maybe she will, maybe she won鈥檛 Maybe she do, maybe she don鈥檛 But if she do, it鈥檚 not up to you Miss Mabee, when you鈥檙e near The air is bright and clear Miss Mabee, when you鈥檙e gone I feel I can鈥檛 go on And when you鈥檙e far away It feels like maybe it鈥檚 there you鈥檒l stay And maybe I鈥檒l turn old and grey Waiting for your golden ray (Then again maybe not) Maybe Miss Mabee will Or maybe Miss Mabee won鈥檛 Maybe Miss Mabee will Or maybe Miss Mabee won鈥檛
