A few more days we'll be home in glory Already they'll be getting out the flags With Memphis high motive dilatory Still I only see a lot of snags
Just because I've triumphed as a slaver, oh yeah yeah Brought beauty back to Egypt by the ton, oh yeah Of this and every month now I'm the flavor, oh yeah And scheduled to do things I've never done
And why should I tell you this a stranger I just met A woman who in hours from now I'll certainly forget Anonymous and undemanding, enchantment passing through My secrets and my confidence are safe enough with you
My days out in the field are all but ended They'll put me out to grass which means the throne Bedecked with jewels alongside my intended I feel as if my heart is set in stone
