I'm discontented with homes that I've rented

 So I have invented my own.

 Darling, this place is lovely oasis

 Where life's weary taste is unknown



 Far from the crowded city

 Where flowers pretty caress the stream

 Cozy to hide in, to live side by side in,

 Don't let it apart in my dream



 Picture me upon your knee

 Just tea for two

 And two for tea

 Just me for you

 And you for me alone



 Nobody near us to see us or hear us

 No friends or relations

 On weekend vacations

 We won't have it known

 That we own a telephone, dear



 Day will break and I'll wake

 And start to bake a sugar cake

 For you to take for all the boys to see



 We will raise a family

 A boy for you

 And a girl for me

 Can't you see how happy we would be



 Picture you upon my knee

 Just tea for two

 And two for tea

 Just me for you

 And you for me alone



 Nobody near us to see us or hear us

 No friends or relations

 On weekend vacations

 We won't have it known

 That we own a telephone, dear



 Day will break, you'll wake

 And start to bake a sugar cake

 For you to take for all the boys to see



 We will raise a family

 A boy for you

 And a girl for me

 Can't you see how happy we would be
