Текст песни Evelina - David Brooks & Celeste Holm

Evelyna, won't you ever take a shine to that moon?
Evelyna, ain't you bothered by the babbling stew?
Tell me, tell me how long
You're gonna keep delaying the day
Don't you reckon it's wrong
Trifling with April this way?
Evelyna, won't you pay a little mind to me so?

Wake up, wake up
The earth is fair, the fruit is fine
But what's the use of smelling watermelon
Clinging to another fella's vine?
Evelyna, won't you roll off that vine and be mine?

Oh, Mr. Calhoun, you forgot the most romantic part
I did?
Why, yes, don't you remember?

Evelyna, won't you ever take a shine to that moon?
Our lives would be a perfect hitch
'Cause you're so handsome, I'm so rich
Evelyna, ain't you bothered by the babbling stew?
I'd be content with only you
And just a chambermaid or two

Tell me, tell me how long
You're gonna keep delaying the day
Don't you reckon it's wrong
Trifling with finance this way?
Evelyna, won't you pay a little mind to me so?

Wake up, wake up
The trap is set, the pickin's fine
But what's the use of smelling watermelon
Clinging to another fella's vine?
Evelyna, won't you roll off that vine and be mine?
(Off that vine and be mine)
