Carousel movie - Mister Snow lyrics

<br>

Carrie<br>

His name is Mister Snow,<br>

And an up-standed man is he.<br>

He comes home every night in his round-bottomed boat,<br>

With a net full of herring from the sea.<br>

An almost perfect beau,<br>

As refined as a girl could wish.<br>

But he spends so much time in his round-bottomed boat<br>

That he can't seem to lose the smell of fish.<br>

<br>

The first time he kissed me the whiff from his clothes<br>

Knocked me flat on the floor of the room.<br>

But now that I love him, my heart's in my nose<br>

And fish is my fav'rite perfume!<br>

<br>

Last night he spoke quite low,<br>

And a fair-spoken man is he.<br>

And he said "Miss Pipperidge, I'd like it fine<br>

If I could be wed with a wife.<br>

And indeed, Miss Pipperidge, if you'll be mine,<br>

I'll be yours for the rest of my life."<br>

<br>

Next moment we were promised,<br>

And now my mind's in a maze.<br>

For all it can do is look forward to<br>

That wonderful day of days!<br>

<br>

When I marry Mister Snow<br>

The flowers'll be buzzin' with the hum of bees<br>

The birds'll make racket in the church yard trees<br>

When I marry Mister Snow<br>

Then it's off to home we'll go.<br>

And both of us'll look a little dreamy-eyed<br>

A driving to a cottage by the Oceanside<br>

Where the salty breezes blow.<br>

<br>

He'll carry me 'cross the threshold,<br>

And I'll be as meek as a lamb.<br>

Then he'll set me on my feet,<br>

And I'll say kinda sweet,<br>

"Well, Mister Snow, here I am."<br>

<br>

Then I'll kiss him so he'll know<br>

That evry'thin'll be as right as right can be<br>

A living in a cottage by the sea with me<br>

For I love that Mister Snow.<br>

That young sea-faring,<br>

Bold and daring,<br>

Big bewhiskered, overbearing<br>

Darling Mister Snow.<br>

<br>
