Tiptoe – Tavern – Home – Mitch Miller
Posted By Smudew on August 11, 2009
Tiptoe to the window
By the window that is where I’ll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me
Tiptoe from your pillow
To the shadow of a willow tree
And tiptoe thru the tulips with me
Knee deep in flowers we’ll stray
We’ll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me
Tiptoe to the window
By the window that is where I’ll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me
Tiptoe from your pillow
To the shadow of a willow tree
And tiptoe thru the tulips with me
Knee deep in flowers we’ll stray
We’ll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me
There is a tavern in the town
in the town
And there my true love sits him down
sits him down
And drinks his wine as merry as can be
And never never thinks of me
Fare thee well, for I must leave thee
Do not let the parting grieve thee
And remember that the best of friends must part
Must part
Adieu, adieu kind friends, adieu
yes, adieu
I can no longer stay with you
stay with you
I’ll hang my heart on a weeping willow tree
And may the world go well with thee
Oh, dig my grave both wide and deep
wide and deep
Put tombstones at my head and feet
head and feet
And on my breast carve a turtle dove
To signify I died of love.
Fare thee well for I must leave thee
Do not let the parting grieve thee
And remember that the best of friends
Must part must part
Adieu, adieu kind friends, adieu
yes, adieu
I can no longer stay with you
stay with you
I’ll hang my heart on a weeping willow tree
And may the world go well with thee
And may the world go well with thee
Show me the way to go home
I’m tired and I want to go to bed
Oh I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it went right to my head
Wherever I may roam, On land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Show me the way to go home
Show me the way to go home
I’m tired and I want to go to bed
Oh I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it went right to my head
Wherever I may roam, On land or sea or foam
You can always hear me singing this song
Show me the way to go home
Canton, GA
