Lyrics

Soon, when we feel we can afford it
We'll build a modest little farm
We'll buy a yacht and live aboard it
Rolling in luxury and stylish charm
Cows and chickens
Social whirls
Peas and cabbage
Ropes of pearls
Soon there'll be little ones beside us
We'll have a sweet Westphalian home
Somehow we'll grow as rich as Midas
We'll live in Paris when we're not in Rome
Smiling babies
Marble halls
Sunday picnics
Costume balls
Oh, won't my robes of silk and satin
Be chic! I'll have all that I desire
Pangloss will tutor us in Latin
And Greek, while we sit before the fire
Glowing rubies
Glowing logs
Faithful servants
Faithful dogs
We'll round the world enjoying high life
All bubbly pink champagne and gold
We'll lead a rustic and a shy life
Feeding the pigs and sweetly growing old
Breast of peacock
Apple pie
I love marriage
So do I
Oh, happy pair!
Oh, happy we!
It's very rare
How we agree!
Oh, happy pair!
Oh, happy we!
It's very rare
How we agree!
Oh, happy pair!
Oh, happy we!
It's very rare
How we agree!
