I'm discontented with homes that I've rented

So I have invented my own.

Darling, this place is lovely oasis

Where life's weary taste is unknown



Far from the crowded city

Where flowers pretty caress the stream

Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in,

Don't let it apart in my dream



Picture me upon your knee

Just tea for two

And two for tea

Just me for you

And you for me alone



Nobody near us to see us or hear us

No friends or relations

On weekend vacations

We won't have it known

That we own a telephone, dear



Day will break and I'll wake

And start to bake a sugar cake

For you to take for all the boys to see



We will raise a family

A boy for you

And a girl for me

Can't you see how happy we would be



Picture you upon my knee

Just tea for two

And two for tea

Just me for you

And you for me alone



Nobody near us to see us or hear us

No friends or relations

On weekend vacations

We won't have it known

That we own a telephone, dear



Day will break, you'll wake

And start to bake a sugar cake

For you to take for all the boys to see



We will raise a family

A boy for you

And a girl for me

Can't you see how happy we would be
