Why should a woman who is healthy and strong, Blubber like a baby if her man goes away,
A-weepin' and a-wailin' how he's done her wrong,
That's one thing you'll never hear me say.
Never gonna think that the man I lose, Is the only man among men.
I'll snap my fingers to show I don't care, I'll buy me a brand-new dress to wear,
I'll scrub my neck and I'll brush my hair, And start all over again.
Many a new face will please my eye, Many a new love will find me,
Never have I once looked back to sigh, Over the romance behind me,
Many a new day will dawn before I do.
Many a light lad may kiss and fly, A kiss gone by is bygone,
Never have I asked an August sky, Where has last July gone.
Never have I wandered through the rye, Wondering where has some guy gone,
Many a new day will dawn before I do.
Many a new face will please my eye, Many a new love will find me,
Never have I once looked back to sigh, Over the romance behind me,
Many a new day dawn before I do.
Never have I chased the honeybee, Who carelessly cajoled me,
Somebody else just as sweet as he, Cheered me and consoled me.
Never have I wept into my tea, Over the deal someone doled me,
Many a new day will dawn, Many a red sun will set,
Many a blue moon will shine, Before I do.
Many a new face will please my eye, Many a new love will find me,
Never have I once looked back to sigh, Over the romance behind me,
Many a new day will dawn, Many a red sun will set,
Many a blue moon will shine, Before...
(WOMAN CACKLES)
Many a blue moon will shine, Before I do.
