Lyrics September Song - Lotte Lenya
Oh
it's
a
long,
long
while
From
May
'till
December
And
the
days
grow
short
When
you
reach
September.
When
the
Autumn
weather
Turns
the
leaves
to
flame
One
hasn't
got
time
For
the
waiting
game.
For
the
days
dwindle
down
To
a
precious
few...
September...
November...
And
these
few
precious
days
I'll
spend
with
you.
These
precious
days
I'll
spend
with
you.
When
you
meet
with
the
young
men
Early
in
Spring,
They
court
you
in
song
and
rhyme.
They
woo
you
with
songs
and
a
clover
ring,
But
if
you
examine
the
goods
they
bring,
They
have
little
to
offer
but
the
songs
they
sing
And
a
plentiful
waste
of
time
of
day...
And
a
plentiful
waste
of
time...
But
it's
a
long,
long
while
From
May
'till
December
(Pause
for
instrumental
phrase)
(Pause
for
instrumental
phrase)
When
the
Autumn
weather
Turns
the
leaves
to
flame
(Pause
for
instrumental
phrase)
(Pause
for
instrumental
phrase)
For
the
days
dwindle
down
To
a
precious
few;
September...
November...
And
these
few
precious
days
I'll
spend
with
you.
These
precious
days
I'll
spend
with
you!
