Little Down-Hearted Arthur - 14

I don't know how to tell her

That I didn't get that raise in pay today

And I know how much she wanted the dress

In Bakers window, and it breaks my heart

To see her have to wait

And cancel all her plans she made to celebrate

But I can count on her to take it

With a smile and not a frown

She knows that life

Has its little ups and downs

Like Ponies on a merry-go-round

And no one plants the grass green every time

But she don't mind

She wears a gold ring on her finger

And its mine

The new house plans we've had so long

I guess will gather dust another year

And the daffodils are blooming

That she planted way last fall

Upon the hill, and over by the gate

And Lord knows I hate to say again well have to wait

But you can bet that shell just take it

With a smile and not a frown

She knows that life has its little ups and downs

Like Ponies on a merry-go-round

And no one plants the grass green every time

But she don't mind

She wears a gold ring on her finger

And I'm so glad that its mine

She wears a gold ring on her finger

And I'm so glad that its mine
