I could while away the hours conferrin with the flowers
Consulting with the rain
And my head I d be a scratchin while my thoughts were busy hatchin
If I only had a brain.

I d unravel ev ry riddle for any individdle
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts that I d be thinkin , I could be another Lincoln
If I only had a brain

Oh, I could tell you why the ocean s near the shore
I could think of things I d never thunk before
And then I d sit and think some more

I would not be just a nuffin , my head all full of stuffin
My heart all full of pain
And perhaps I d deserve you and be even worthy erv you
If I only had a brain
