There may be a break in the road
The future looks drab and dreary
But if you were here with me, dear
I´d spin you a line that´s far from cheer
There´s always some scribe
Who´s taken the bribe
Describing some Gentleman Jim
Who says he´s in love with a beautiful girl
But she don´t care about him

Say what you do
That sky is much to blue
You´ll know sorrow
That´s deeper than the ocean
It´s a pitiful chain of events
You´d think that I might have more sense
He says
"The birds in the braches may whistle and croon
"But they´re singing out of tune"

There may be bend in the track
But if you come back to see me
I´ll be waiting patiently here
And if you believe that then I fear
There´s always some clown
Who´s bringing me down
By humming a tragic refrain
He says he´s in love with a beautiful girl
But he doesn´t know her name
