Marry With Me Lyrics by Carol Brice

The Grass Harp: A Musical Play (1971 Original Broadway Cast Recording)

1972

[CATHERINE, spoken]
I could be settled down right now
With a man of my own if only I'd answered the letter
Marry with me, he wrote
Catherine, marry with me, love Bill
What worries my mind is
Which one of the Bill's it was that wrote that letter
[Catherine]
I wonder if he was the Bill
Who had a tattoo on his chest
A hussy all undressed
He was a plumber
Came to fix my faucet
Didn't have the tools to find the leak
He lasted out the week
And stayed the summer
Played the ukelele
Miss him daily
When I hear a drip
Yeah!
He's the Bill who wrote
Marry with me
Won'tcha marry with me?
Catherine, marry with me
Marry with me
Love, Bill
Or was he that sweet-talkin' Bill
Who peddled his line door-to-door
The local agent for
The book of knowledge
Paid the first installment
Volume one which went from A to C
He read out loud to me
Just like a college
Got up to Columbus
He took some bus
Still out on that trip
Yeah!
He's the Bill who wrote
Marry with me
Won'tcha marry with me
Catherine, marry with me
Marry with me
Love, Bill
Could have been the Bill
Who built my chicken coop
Took off on his own on a Pullman job
Could have been the Bill
Who liked my chicken soup
Uh oh, no!
His name was Bob!
Bill, the heftiest man on the scene
He kept my garden green
Did all my seedin'
Muscles looked so ripply
Didn't dare refuse him what he ast
The high point of my past
What I've been needin'
Lasted up to Autumn
Could have caught him
If I'd had a whip
Yeah!
He's the Bill who wrote
Marry with me
Won'tcha marry with me
Catherine, marry with me
Marry with me
Love, Bill
Known a peck of bills
How could I tie the knot?
The only letter in all my life I got said:
Marry with me
Won'tcha marry with me
Catherine, marry with me
Love, Bill
