The Love Nest - John Steel/Josef Pasternack Orchestra[00:00:00]
Written by:Louis Achille Hirsch[00:00:02]
Many builders there have been[00:00:05]
Since the world began[00:00:09]
Palace cottage mansion inn[00:00:12]
They have built for man[00:00:15]
Some were small and some were tall[00:00:19]
Long or wide or low[00:00:22]
But the best one of them all[00:00:25]
Jack built long ago[00:00:28]
'Twas built in bygone days[00:00:31]
Yet millions sing its praise[00:00:35]
Just a love nest[00:00:40]
Cozy with charm[00:00:44]
Like a dove nest[00:00:48]
Down on a farm[00:00:51]
A veranda with some sort of clinging vine[00:00:54]
Then a kitchen where some rambler roses twine[00:01:01]
Then a small room[00:01:08]
Tea set of blue[00:01:11]
Best of all room[00:01:15]
Dream room for two[00:01:18]
Better than a palace with a gilded dome[00:01:22]
Is a love nest[00:01:28]
You can call home[00:01:32]
Building houses still goes on[00:01:42]
Now as well as then[00:01:45]
Ancient jack and Jill are gone[00:01:49]
Yet return again[00:01:52]
Ever comes the question old[00:01:55]
Shall we build for pride[00:01:58]
Or shall brick and mortar hold[00:02:01]
Warmth and love inside[00:02:05]
The answer you may know[00:02:08]
Jack solved it long ago[00:02:12]
Then a small room[00:02:45]
Tea set of blue[00:02:49]
Best of all room[00:02:52]
Dream room for two[00:02:56]
Better than a palace with a gilded dome[00:02:59]
Is a love nest[00:03:06]
You can call home[00:03:10]
