Reuben, Reuben

Reuben, Reuben, I've been thinking
What a fine world this would be
If the boys were all transported
Far beyond the Northern Sea!

Rachel, Rachel, I've been thinking
What a strange world this would be
If the girls were all transported
Far beyond the Northern Sea!

Reuben, Reuben, I've been thinking
Life would be so easy then;
What a lovely world this would be
If there were no tiresome men!

Rachel, Rachel, I've been thinking
Life would be so easy then;
What a lovely world this would be
If you'd leave it to the men!

Reuben, Reuben, I've been thinking
If we went beyond the seas,
All the boys would follow after
Like a swarm of bumble-bees!


Rachel, Rachel, I've been thinking
If we went beyond the seas,
All the girls would follow after
Like a swarm of honey-bees!

Midi: Reuben, Reuben
