Sobbin Women - Seven Brides For Seven Brothers - The Band Musical Cast

Tell ya 'bout them sobbin' women

Who lived in the roman days

It seems that they all went swimmin'

While their men was off to graze

Well a roman troop was ridin' by

And saw them in their me oh my

So they took 'em all back home to dry

Least that's what plutarch says

Oh yes

Them a woman was sobbin' sobbin' sobbin'

Fit to be tied

Ev'ry muscle was throbbin' throbbin'

From that riotous ride

Since they cried and kissed

Kissed and cried

All over that roman countryside

So don't forget that

When you're takin' a bride

Sobbin' fit to be tied

From that riotous ride

They never did return their plunder

The victor gets all the loot

They carried them home by thunder

To rotundas small but cute

And you've never seens so

They tell me such downright gomesticity

With a roman baby on each knee

Named claudius and brute

Oh yes

Them a women was sobbin' sobbin'

Sobbin' passin' em nights

While the romans was goin' out hobbin'

Startin' up fights

They kept occupied by sewin' lots of little old togas

For them tots and sayin'

Someday women folk'll have rights

Passin' all o' them nights

Just sewin'

While the romans had fights

Now when their menfolk went to fetch 'em

Them women would not be fetched

It seems when the romans ketch 'em

Their lady friends stay ketched

Right now

Let this be because it's true

A lesson to the likes of you

Rough em like them there romans do

Or else they'll think you're tetched

Oh yes

Them a women was sobbin' sobbin'

Sobbin' buckets of tears

Mighty sad

On account o' old dobbin'

Dobbin' really rattled their ears

That ain't all

Oh they acted angry and annoyed

But secretly they was over joyed

You might recall that

When corralin' your streer

Them poe little dears

Oh yes

Them a women was sobbin' sobbin' sobbin'

Weepin' a ton then sobbin' women

Just remember what robin robin robin oh yeah

Would done them sobbin women

They we'll be just like them three merry men

And make 'em all merry once again

And though they'll be a sobbin' for a while

Oh yes
