KITCHEN MAGICIAN, BACKYARD MAN
I met her back in o thirteen,
The prettiest girl I'd ever seen,
I thought I didn't stand a chance,
When I asked her for a dance.
And this is how it all began,
A kitchen magician and a backyard man.
She was smart, I was a fool,
I looked for work, she stayed in school,
Who'd believe that we could be,
Together, now it's her and it's me.
We're doing everything we can,
The kitchen magician and the backyard man.
Doo, doo, doo....
She's a chef, culinary,
I'm working in a nursery,
Oh how happy we will be,
In our family.
We made a life, we've got a plan,
My kitchen magician and her backyard man.
Doo, doo, doo....
