If I only had a Brain

Nice cool sunny blustery Fall day in beautiful downtown Maryland.


Here is something I really like.  The melody has been stuck in my brain for weeks.  Perhaps if I put the lyrics down here, my mind will clarify and I can move on.:

  IFI ONLY HAD A BRAIN

I could while away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers,
Consultin' with the rain;
And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.

I'd unravel ev'ry riddle for any individ'le,
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts I'd be a thinkin'
I could be another Lincoln,
If I only had a brain.

Oh, I could tell  you why
the ocean's near the shore
I could think of things I never thunk before,
And then I'd sit and think some more.

I would not be just a muffin,
My head all full of stuffin',
My heart all full of pain;
I would dance and be so merry,
Life would be a ding-a-derry,
If I only had a brain.

Ain't life great!  Happy Halloween!
