If I Only Had A Brain

(Album: Swings Both Ways - 2013)

I could while away the hours
Conferring with the flowers
Consulting with the rain
And my head I'd be scratching
While my thoughts were busy hatching
If I only had a brain

I'd unravel every riddle for any individ'le
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts I'd be thinking
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 nothing
My head all full of stuffing
My heart all full of pain
Perhaps I deserve you
And be even worthy of you
If I only had a brain

I could while away the hours
Conferring with the flowers
Consulting with the rain
And my head I'd be scratching
While my thoughts were busy hatching
If I only
If I only had a brain
