Who left her on the doorstep of an old English castle
Where she was found by Sir Basil Metabolism who said:
By jove the Gorin baby; I shall raise her as me-own daughter which he did)
But she wants to tap dance and Cowboy Dan who she met on this trip
Wants to marry her so she can tap dance but she knows

So peaceful there in the purple mountains and the lovely mist
And the shining stars And the little people who live so simple and quiet
And every night all they want to do is ”

Benefit of the people who came in – in the middle
