Der Wind singt unser Lied

Noughts and Crosses - George Formby

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

Than go to the pictures or the zoo

I'm very daft at dancing

At moonlight or romancing

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

I've never been one for billiards or darts

I'm much too shy to play a game of hearts

At dog tracks or the races I always lose my braces

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

Here am I a funny sort of guy

I wouldn't dare to hold your hand

Let's begin maybe I'll let you win

I hope that you understand

Sitting around a table for two

That's the only thing I want to do

There's something cute about you

I couldn't do without you

Playing a simple game tell me you feel the same

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

Than take you to a French non-stop revue

It may not be so funny but still it saves me money

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

I haven't the manly figure for sports

I never think I look my best in shorts

I lose my breath at biking and as for that mixed hiking

I'd rather play noughts and crosses with you

One fine day if luck should come my way

We'll have a little kitchenette

You and me and when we've had our tea

I hope that you won't forget

Playing at noughts and crosses with you

That's the only way that I can woo

Though now you're far above me

In time you'll learn to love me

Isn't it bold and bad but I feel a lad

Playing at noughts and crosses with you
