My Heart Is a Hobo

My Heart Is a Hobo - Bing Crosby (平克·勞斯)/Sonny Tufts

My heart is a hobo

Loves to roam through fields of clover

Hates to have to think things over

And though it's wrong

I string along

My heart is a hobo

Loves to go out berry pickin'

Hates to hear alarm clocks tickin'

It isn't smart

That's my heart

When hopes are out of the elbows

Dreams are run down at the heels

My heart refuses to worry

Sept by written reals

My heart is a hobo

Loves to quote from Omar Khayyam

Hates the stodgy gal that I am

And though it's strange

Just can't change my heart

My heart is a hobo

Loves to roam through fields of clover

Hates to have to think things over

And though it's wrong

I string along

My heart is a hobo

Loves to go out berry pickin'

Hates to hear alarm clocks tickin'

It isn't smart

But that's my heart

When hopes are out of the elbows

Dreams are run down at the heels

Just can't get excited

My heart refuses to worry

Sept by written reals

My heart is a hobo

Loves to quote from Omar Khayyam

Hates the stodgy gal that I am

And though it's strange

I just can't change my heart
