I could wile away the hours
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And 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 individual
In trouble of in pain
With the thoughts you'll be thinkin'
u could be another Lincoln
If u only had a brain
Oh,I would tell u 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 hart-, hart all full of pain
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain
Conferrin' with the flowers
Consultin' with the rain
And 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 individual
In trouble of in pain
With the thoughts you'll be thinkin'
u could be another Lincoln
If u only had a brain
Oh,I would tell u 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 hart-, hart all full of pain
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-derry
If I only had a brain
