In the Meantime - Peter Mayer

Hush, little baby, don’t you cry

I’m never going away-a

A mightily fine woman someday you’ll be

Wedding bells are gonna chime

You’ll shed a few tears over the years

The lamb and lion are gonna play-a

Till tomorrow when the new moon shines

I’m gonna love you in the meantime

Under banyan tree you been waitin' on he

Says he’s gonna take you away-a

It’s 11 o’clock and the party don’t stop

Soon midnight’s a gonna chime

Well, I can’t claim a casanova’s name

No, I don’t own a holy day, oh

But I can sing a song and make you cry

Shall we dance in the meantime?

So you found your boy, grease monkey joy

Workin' on his wheels all day-o

He’s gonna take you round the world when he put down the top

Oh, his Chevy do shine

But there was no gold in the golden gate

There was no silver in the lining

I’m so alone, baby take me home

Tell me you love me in the meantime

One fine morning with no warning you will cry

Round the world your heart goes searching

While I’m right by your side, by your side

Never let you down, down, down

Gonna love you in the meantime, meantime darling

Dancing in the meantime, meantime honey

Springtime summertime, winter or fall, yeah

Any time at all, dancin' in the meantime
