Текст песни Matchmaker

Matchmaker, matchmaker Make me a match Find me a find Catch me a catch Matchmaker, matchmaker Look through your book And make me a perfect match Matchmaker, matchmaker I'll bring the veil You bring the groom Slender and pale Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be The envy of all I see For papa Make him a scholar For mama Make him rich as a king For me, well I wouldn't holler If he were as handsome as anything Matchmaker, matchmaker Make me a match Find me a find Catch me a catch Night after night in the dark I'm alone So find me match Of my own Hodel, oh hodel Have I made a match for you He's handsome, he's young Alright, he's 62 But he's a nice man, a good catch, true? True? I promise you'll be happy And even if you're not There's more to life than that Don't ask me what Chava, I found him Won't you be a lucky bride He's handsome, he's tall That is from side to side But he's a nice man, a good catch, right? Right? You heard he has a temper He'll beat you every night But only when he's sober So you'll be alright Did you think you'd get a prince Well I do the best I can With no dowry, no money, no family background Be glad you got a man Matchmaker, matchmaker You know that I'm Still very young Please, take your time Up to this minute I misunderstood That I could get stuck for good Dear yenta See that he's gentle Remember You were also a bride It's not that I'm sentimental It's just that I'm terrified Matchmaker, matchmaker Plan me no plans I'm in no rush Maybe I've learned Playing with matches A girl can get burned So Bring me no ring Groom me no groom Find me no find Catch me no catch Unless he's a matchless match
