For your sparkling @@#!y smile I've walked a million miles
Begging you to come and wed me in the spring
Why do you my dear delay

What makes you laugh and turn away
You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee


Well I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above we could spend our lives in love

You're a hesitating beauty, Nora Lee

We can build a house and home where the flowers come to bloom

Around our yard I'll nail a fence so high
That the boys with peeping eyes cannot see that angel face
My hesitating beauty Nora Lee

Well I know that you are itching to get married Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing Nora Lee
By the stars and clouds above we can spend our lives in love

If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee

We can ramble hand in hand across the grasses of our land

I'll kiss you for each leaf on every tree
We can bring our kids to play where the dry leaves blow today
If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee


Well I know that you are itching to get married, Nora Lee
And I know how I'm twitching for the same thing, Nora Lee

By the stars and clouds above we could spend our lives in love
If you quit your hesitating, Nora Lee
