In My Own Little Corner

In My Own Little Corner - Yana/Hammerstein/Rodgers

I'm as mild and as meek as a mouse

When I hear a command I obey

But I know of a spot in my house

Where no one can stand in my way

In my own little corner in my own little chair

I can be whatever I want to be

On the wing of my fancy I can fly anywhere

And the world will open it's arms to me

I'm a young Egyptian princess or a milkmaid

I'm the greatest prima donna in Milan

I'm an heiress who has always had her silk made

By her own flock of silk worms in japan

I'm a girl men go mad for

Love's a game I can play

With a cool and confident kind of air

Just as long as I stay in my own little corner

All alone in my own little chair
