If I Only Had a Brain

If I Only Had A Brain - The MGM Studio Orchestra/Ray Bolger/Judy Garland

Written by：Harold Arlen

I could while away the hours

Conferrin' with the flowers

Consultin' with the rain

My head I'd be scratchin'

While my thoughts were busy hatchin'

If I only had a brain

I'd unravel every riddle

For any individ'al

In trouble or in pain

With the thoughts you'll be thinkin'

You could be another Lincoln

If you only had a brain

Oh I could tell you why the ocean's near the shore

I could think of things I never thunk before

And then I'd sit and think some more

I would not be just a nothin'

My head all full of stuffin'

My heart all full of pain

I would dance and be merry

Life would be a ding a derry

If I only had a brain

Gosh it would be awful pleasin'

To reason out the reason

For things I can't explain

Then perhaps I'll deserve your

And be even worthy of you

If I only had a brain
