a ukulele and a map of france

the man in the barber shop said
what will you have today
whatever’s not cut and dried
was all that I could say

the woman in the baker’s shop said
what will you have today
I’ll have my cake and eat it too
was all that I could say

the man in the betting shop said
what will you have today
a kingdom for my weary horse
was all that I could say

the sergeant in the army shop said
what will you have today
a poem from the first world war
was all that I could say

the girl in the junk shop said
what will you have today
a ukulele and a map of france
was all that I could say

a ukulele and a map of france
will go a long, long way
a ukulele and a map of france
is all I need today
