September Song 

When He was a young man courting the girls
He played the waiting game
If a maid refused me with a tossing curls,
He let the old earth, take a couple of whirls
While I plied her with tears in prays of pearls
And as time came around she came my way

 

As time came around she came
For its a long, long while,
from May to December
And the days grow short,
when you reach September
And I have the lost my tears,
and the walking in the little rain

 

Hey honey,
I haven't gotta time for gaining Waiting Game
And the days turn to crawl(?grow old?)
as they grow few
September, November
And these few colden(?golden?) days
I'd like to spend 'em with you

 

These golden days,
I'd like to spend 'em with you
And the days dwindle down to a precious few
September, November
And I'm not quite a quip for the waiting game
I have a little money, and I have a little pain
And these few golden days, as the days grow so few

 

These golden days,
I'd like to spend 'em with you
These precious golden days,
I'd like to spend 'em with you
September song, September song
September song, September song
