If I Only Had a Brain

I could wile away the hours

Conferring with the flowers

Consulting with the rain

And my head, I'd be scratching while my thoughts were busy hatchin'

If I only had a brain

I'd unravel every riddle

For any individ'l in trouble or in pain

With the thoughts I'd be thinkin'

I could be another Lincoln

If I only had a brain

Oh, I could tell you 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 heart all full of pain

Perhaps, I'd deserve you and be even worthy of you

If I only had a brain

I could wile away the hours

Conferring with the flowers

Consulting with the rain

And my head, I'll be scratching while my thoughts were busy hatchin'

If I only

If I only

Had a brain
