Carousel soundtrack – Mister Snow lyrics

(Barbara singing)
His name is Mister Snow,
And an upstanded man is he,
He comes home every night,
In his round-bottomed boat,
With a net full of herrings from the sea

An almost perfect beau,
As refined as a girl could wish,
But he spends so much time in his round-bottomed boat,
That he can't seem to lose the smell of of fish.

The first time I kissed him,
The whiff of his clothes,
Knocked me flat on the floor of the room,
But now that I love him my hearts in my nose,
And fish is my favourite perfume.

Last night he spoke quite low,
And a fair spoken man is he,
And he said,
Miss Pipperidge I'd like it fine if I could be wed with a wife,
And indeed Miss Pipperidge if you be mine,
I'll be yours for the rest of my life.

Next moment we were promised,
And now minds in a maze,
For all it can do is look forward to,
That wonderful day of days.

When I marry Mister Snow,
The flowers will be buzzing with the hum of bees,
The birds will make a racket in the churchyard trees,
When I marry Mister Snow.

Then its off to home we'll go,
And both of us will look a little dreamyeyed,
A-driving to a cottage by the Oceanside,
Where the salty breezes blow.

He'll carry me 'cross the threshold,
And I'll be as meek as a lamb,
Then he'll set me on my feet,
And I'll say kinda sweet
Well Mister Snow here I am.

Then I'll kiss him so he'll know,
That everything will be as right as right can be,
A living in a cottage by the sea with me,
For I love that Mister Snow.

That young seafarin',
Bold and darin',
Big bewhiskered,
Overbearing,
Darling Mister Snow.
