Maria 歌詞

Maria - Muriel O'Malley/Elizabeth Howell/Karen Shepard/Patricia Neway

Written by:Rodgers/Hammerstein

She climbs a tree

And scrapes her knee

Her dress has got a tear

 

She waltzs on her way to mass

And whistles on the stair

 

And underneath her wimple

She has curlers in her hair

 

I've even heard her singing in the abbey

 

She's always late for chapel

But her penitence is real

 

She's always late for everything

Except for every meal

 

I hate to have to say it but I very firmly feel

Maria's not an asset to the abbey

 

I'd like to say a word in her behalf:

 

Maria makes me laugh

 

How do you solve a problem like maria

 

How do you catch a cloud and pin it down

 

How do you find a word that means Maria

 

A flibbertajibbit

A will of a whisp

A clown

 

Many a thing you know you'd like tell her

 

Many a thing she ought to understand

 

But how do you make her stay

And listen to all you say

How do you keep a wave upon the sand

Oh how do you solve a problem like Maria

 

How do you hold a moon beam in your hand

 

When I'm with her

I'm confused

Out of focus

And bemused

And I never know exactly where I am

 

Unpredictable as weather

She's as flighty as a feather

She's a darling

She's a demon

She's a lamb

She'd out pester any pest

Drive a hornet from its nest

She can throw a twirling dervish out of whirl

 

She is gentle

She is wild

She's a riddle

She's a child

She's a headache

She's an angel

 

She's a girl

 

How do you solve a problem like Maria

 

How do you catch a cloud and pin it down

 

How do you find a word that means Maria

 

A flibbertajjibet

A will of a wisp

A clown

 

Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her

 

Many a thing she ought to understand

 

But how do you make her stay

And listen to all you say

How do you keep a wave upon the sand

 

Oh how do you solve a problem like maria

 

 

How do you hold a moon beam in your hand
