Lena Horne — My Heart Is a Hobo

My heart is a hobo Loves to roam through fields of clover Hates to have to think things over And though it's wrong I string along My heart is a hobo Loves to go out berry pickin' Hates to hear alarm clocks tickin' It isn't smart But that's my heart When hopes are out of the elbows Dreams are run down at the heels My heart refuses to worry It's funny how free it feels My heart is a hobo Loves to quote from Omar Khayyam Hates the stodgy gal that I am And though it's strange I just can't change my heart When hopes are out oat the elbows And dreams are run down at the heels My heart refusеs to worry It's funny how free it feels I'm happy my heart is a hobo Loves to quote from Omar Khayyam Hatеs the stubborn gal that I am And though it's strange I just can't change Or even rearrange my heart
