Becha Don’t

From Blueberry Boat

Lyrics as appearing in liner notes

Charity never bargains, if at all; something of Tartary silk or finest scarlet?- He'll have 'em both! Or haven't you heard?! Or what would you think? I've got a broken and contrite heart, (and wouldn't you know it) I'm weary with my groaning, and each night I rain down on my bed, soack my couch with tears. Found yourself on the Malvern Hills penniless and starving puzzling out your dream: Betcha Don't Manage to take Your own advice. I've got a contrary and useless disposition And feel it all slipping away from me E'en like as a dream when you are awake so you make their image vanish out of the city.

Lyrics as sung

Charity never bargains, if at all;
something of Tartary silk or finest scarlet?
He'll have 'em both!
Or haven't you heard?! Or what would you think?

I've got a broken and contrite heart
(and wouldn't you know it)
I'm weary with my groan-
ing, and each night I
rain down on my bed,
soack my couch with tears.

Found yourself on the Malvern Hills
penniless and starving puzzling out your dream:
Betcha don't
manage to take your own advice.

I've got a contrary and useless disposition
And feel it all slipping away from me
E'en like as a dream,
when you are awake,
so you make their image
vanish out of the city.

E'en like as a dream,
when you are awake,
so you make their image
vanish out of the city.
