The Girl in the Little the Green Hat - Roy Fox

There's a lake in the park

There's a house by the lake

There's a girl in the house

In the park by the lake

And the girl in the house

By the lake in the park

Is the girl in the little green hat

And tonight after eight

That's when I've got a date

When the moon's riding high

And the stars light the sky

With the girl in the house

By the lake in the park

The girl in the little green hat

There no water in the lake

No roof upon the house

No treesies in the park at all

But I'll wait beside the lake

I'll be welcome at the house

I'll meet her by the garden wall

There's a ship on the lake

There's a sailor on the shore

There's a girl in his arms

She's the girl I adore

So goodbye to the house

By the lake in the park

And the girl in the little green hat

There's a storm on the lake

There's a ship in the storm

There's a girl on the ship in the storm on the lake

And the girl on the lake on the ship in the storm

Is the girl in the little green hat

As the ship starts to dip

She is losing her grip

Every dip makes a tip not the girl but the ship

But the girl on the ship has the pip from the trip

The girl in the little green hat

She's been sailing quite enough

She's been clinging to the rails

She's dying to be home once more

'Cause the lake is rather rough

And the girl is rather pale

She's glad to get her feet on shore

Ah she gave up the ship

And the captain and his men

Bought a complimentary ticket to my arms once again

Now I'm back in the park at the house by the lake

With the girl in the little green hat
