Tell me where all the days have gone
Where'd you go when you can't go on
With this filthy fable, tell me Mabel
Oh dear Mabel, please don't put me on
Sunken eyed and all panic stricken
And tell me where all the days have gone
I wish you would or I'll drop you in it
I'm unable to take it seriously
Mistress Mabel all the kids agree
When you rocked my cradle, tell me Mabel
Hemline rat bag so they told her
Wind them down and then keep them kickin'
Oh dear Mabel, it still worries me
Where'd you go when you can't go on
Tell me where all the days have gone
You're unstable curious and free
Last nights name tag across her shoulder
Mistress Mabel won't you marry me?
Where'd you go when you can't go on
I'll be good and you'll be a minute
With this filthy fable, tell me Mabel
Where'd you go when you can't go on
Yes, she's old but she should know better
When you rocked my cradle, tell me Mabel
Last nights name tag across her shoulder
When you rocked my cradle, tell me Mabel
Oh dear Mabel won't you marry me?
Takes a liberty if you let her
With this filthy fable, tell me Mabel
And tell me where all the days have gone
Hemline rat bag so they told her
When you rocked my cradle, tell me Mabel
