《A Little Gossip》歌词

[00:00:00] A Little Gossip - Irving Jacobson

[00:00:08] A little gossip a little chat

[00:00:12] A tittle idle talk of this and that

[00:00:17] I'll tell him all the troubles I have had

[00:00:21] And since he doesn't hear

[00:00:23] At least he won't feel bad

[00:00:28] When I first got home my wife Teresa beat me

[00:00:32] But the blows fell very lightly on my back

[00:00:36] She kept missing every other

[00:00:39] Stroke and crying from the heart

[00:00:41] That while I was gone

[00:00:42] She'd gone and lost the knack

[00:00:45] Of course I hit her back your Grace

[00:00:48] But she's a lot harder than

[00:00:49] I am and you know what they say

[00:00:52] Whether the stone hits the pitcher

[00:00:54] Or the pitcher hits the stone

[00:00:56] It's going to be bad for the pitcher

[00:00:59] So I've got bruises from here to

[00:01:03] A little gossip a little chat

[00:01:08] A little idle talk of this and that

[00:01:13] If no one listens then it's just as well

[00:01:17] At least I won't get caught in any lies I tell

[00:01:24] Oh I haven't fought a windmill in a fortnight

[00:01:28] And the humble joys get duller every day

[00:01:33] Why when I'm asleep a dragon

[00:01:35] With his fiery tongue a-waggin'

[00:01:38] Whispers Sancho won't you please come out and play
