Nellie:
When the skies are brighter canary yellow
I forget ev`ry cloud I`ve ever seen,
So they called me a cockeyed optimist
Immature and incurably green.
I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
That we`re done and we might as well be dead,
But I`m only a cockeyed optimist
And I can`t get it into my head.
I hear the human race
Is fallin` on its face
And hasn`t very far to go,
But ev`ry whippoorwill
Is sellin` me a bill,
And tellin` me it just ain`t so.
I could say life is just a bowl of Jello
And appear more intelligent and smart,
But I`m stuck like a dope
With a thing called hope,
And I can`t get it out of my heart!
