Some Things That I Like


Just came to me. Can't 'splain it.

Hit Play and sing along.

The Things That I Like
Rain on a tin roof and Thanksgiving dinner
Purses and lipstick and being the winner
Crisp sheets and keeping my house fairly clean
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cho-co-late candy and cardigan sweaters
Christmas trees, presents and handwritten letters
Hydrangea flowers that bloom in the Spring
These are a few of my favorite things.

The dog running quickly to jump up and greet me
Packing my suitcase and smelling the coffee
Two margaritas, new boots and whipped cream
These are a few of my favorite things.

(Chorus)
When my jeans shrink and I'm gnomelike
And I buy more shoes
I simply remember some things that I like
And then I don't feeeel so blue.

A crack-e-ling fire, cake donuts and snowfall
Pictures of family and y'all used for you all
Stand-up, a moon pie and diamond earrings
These are a few of my favorite things.

Napping and screen doors and painting the kitchen
Pizza and white shirts, the smiles of my children
Unbridled laughter that happiness brings
These are a few of my favorite things.

Holding hands, beaches, and trav'ling in Europe
Shade trees and porches and fields full of tulips
Cranberry scones, queso, bakery icing
These are a few of my favorite things.

(Chorus)
When my jeans shrink and I'm gnomelike
And I buy more shoes
I simply remember some things that I like
And then I don't feeeel so blue.

Okay, I admit I'm no Richard Rodgers.
