Bessie, what's on your mind?
Can it be that things are good
That things are fine?
Family, where are you?
What hurts me
Must surely hurt you too
Daytime, it's coming up
Something is bound for you and me
What it is, I don't know
We'll have to wait and see
Thadeus, he comes and goes
He thinks I'm great, he told me so
Last I saw he was very tall
And he grew a beard
Oh, boy
You're growing older by the second
Your head is filled
With sentimental recollections
They don't have
The answers to your questions
They don't have, who
Bessie, I dream of you
Of carbonation and two bats too
A great big ocean, as wide as
The eye can see, maybe one day
Hey, you'll marry me, oh
