Maine Lyrics by Richard Kiley, Diahann Carroll

No Strings (Original Broadway Cast)

0

[DAVID]
Let the snow come down
Before the sun comes up
Maine is the main thing
Let the lake and hills
Become a frozen cup
Twenty below in Maine
Get the sleigh, torn about
That's a nice team
Make believe all of it's yours
Take a breath, blow it out
No, it ain't steam
It'll be warmer indoors
Let the snow come down
Before it starts to rain
Under the covers it's cozy
Far away, cross the bay
Goes an old train
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Mainly I do likе Maine
[BARBARA]
When the sun goеs down
The kids are up and out
East of the Hudson
There's a sidewalk symphony
Of song and shout
Up north of Central Park
When it's late, climb the stairs
Ready for bed
Close your eyes, start to count sheep
Music comes floating up
Into your head
What's the use trying to sleep?
There's a record playing in the flat below
Down there a trumpet blows softly
What a warm place it is after it's dark
Wah-hoo, wah-hoo
Up north of Central Park
[DAVID & BARBARA]
Let the snow come down
Before the sun comes up (When the sun goes down)
(The kids are out)
Maine is the main thing
(Where's Maine?)
(There's a sidewalk symphony)
Let the lake and hills get frozen up (Of song and shout)
Up north of Central Park (Way down in Maine)
[DAVID]
Get the sleigh, turn about
That's a nice team
[BARBARA]
Close your eyes, start to count sheep
[DAVID & BARBARA]
Warm or cold, what's the use turnin' on steam?
Never mind tryin' to sleep
[DAVID & BARBARA]
Let the snow come down
Before it starts to rain (There's a record playing)
Under the covers (In the flat below)
[DAVID & BARBARA]
It's cozy
What a warm place it is after it's dark
[DAVID]
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
[BARBARA]
Wah-hoo, wah-hoo
[DAVID]
Mainly I do like—
[BARBARA]
Up north of Central—
[DAVID]
Mainly I do like—
[BARBARA]
Up north of Central—
[DAVID]
Mainly I do like—
[BARBARA]
Up north of Central—
[DAVID]
Maine
