"Miss Mabee" lyrics

Maybe Miss Mabee will
Or maybe Miss Mabee won't
Maybe Miss Mabee will
Or maybe Miss Mabee won't

Maybe she'll lace your boot
Or maybe she'll polish your flute
Or maybe she'll dig your root
Or maybe she won't give a hoot

Miss Mabee told me to eat my tail
It tasted awful
Why do I listen to you, Miss Mabee?
You commit nothing, but I love you anyway

Miss Mabee told me to strip
And pace the six-pointed seal
Muttering heehaw in Hebrew and who ha
I did all that stuff, just as you ordained

Maybe she will, maybe she won't
Maybe she do, maybe she don't
But if she do, it's not up to you

Miss Mabee, when you're near
The air is bright and clear
Miss Mabee, when you're gone
I feel I can't go on

And when you're far away
It feels like maybe it's there you'll stay
And maybe I'll turn old and grey
Waiting for your golden ray
Then again maybe not

Maybe Miss Mabee will
Or maybe Miss Mabee won't
Maybe Miss Mabee will
Or maybe Miss Mabee won't
