It's a long, long way from A way from snow chains Donkey slicing coconut No parkas to names
Black babies in baking flour The cook's got a carnival We're to lay down someplace shady dreamland coming on
Dreamland, Dreamland,
Walter Raleigh and Columbus Come out of the waves And claim the and all concessions In the name of the slaves
I wrapped that flag me Like a Dorothy Lamour And I lay thinking national With dreamland on
Dreamland, Dreamland,
Goodtime Mary and a hunter All dressed up to follow the Mary in a feather Miss Fortune with a rose on her big gun
All saints, all sinners those trumpets all night long Propped up on a samba dreamland coming on
Dreamland, Dreamland,
Tar and the Great White Wonder Talking a glass of rum Burning on the With the knowledge of to come
There's gambling out on the And midnight ramblin' on the As they lead temptation With coming on
Dream, dream, Dream,
In a plane back to winter In shoes of tropic sand A lady in a flag On the arm of her Man
The hawk howls in New City Six foot drifts on lawn As push the recline buttons down With coming on
Dreamland, Dreamland,
sand on the trade winds And the sun on the As they the recline buttons down With dreamland on
Dreamland,
Dream on, on, dream on on, dream on Dream on, on, dream on on, dream on Dream on, dream on, on on, dream on, dream on on
