about

He drives me crazy!

lyrics

Birdies are a cooing, flitting and a flooing
Flying from tree to tree.
They’re looking for a lover, they want an egg to cover
Nature will let it be.

Hearts are filled with pleasure,
Springtime brings its measure,
I know who I love most of all.
He’s funny, he’s gentle
And his ways they drive me mental.
He’s the carpenter from Donegal.

Things are multiplying and they do it without trying,
Even the birds and bees.
While they are a-mating and without hesitating,
He’s woos me with his pleasantries.

One hundred invitations to friends and our relations
Declaring we would married be,
All on the day requested, the beer and wine we tasted
To a banquet and all finery.
