letra de i married a milliner - al duvall
though many adore me
i married a milliner
she’s breezy, she’s stormy
i cherish the chill in her
for although i’m forty she breathes and i feel eighteen
she stands in her stall
she’s a poor kid with tortured feet
she smiles through it all
she’s the orchid of orchard street
i spotted her plumage through the window of my limousine
on top of the world the air’s rather thin
alone i sat gasping and pale
but the tenement bas-m-nt apartment she’s in
is warm as a mexican jail
but business got tougher
for my little milliner
the work made her suffer
the mercury was k!llin’ her
she’d faint on the sofa and arouse my chivalry
so i reached in my pocket
and pulled out a dime and ring
i put back the dime and
i gave her the other thing
and laid down a hanky and fell upon my knee
i heard from an old society flame
the milliner weighed on her head
“a millionaire ought to be smart,” said the dame
and she coaxed me to wed her instead
but i didn’t carry
a torch like an arsonist
i went to mcsorley’s
’cause that’s where the parson is
to ask him to marry the milliner and me
