Lyrics:
Verse 1
[Dolly]
It seems as if this trip
Would take forever and a day,
But where there is a will,
You know, there has to be a way.
[Polly]
I know a million reasons now
Why we should turn and run,
But really, I'm so frightened
That I can't remember one.
Refrain 1
[Both]
With an Irish cook and a wild-man crew
And a mate who is Portuguese and six feet two
Ooh! ooh! I wonder what they'd do
If they ever knew-if they ever knew-
We were two little girls in blue,
Not one-
But two little girls in blue.
Verse 2
[Polly}
With you along, I know
I won't be very terrified;
But dear, you know a trunk's
An awful place in which to hide.
[Dolly]
Now be a Pollyana, Polly,
And I'm sure you'll find
The trunk as comfy as the two
By four we left behind.
Refrain 2
[Both]
We can fool the cook and the wild-man crew
For we fooled our mother and our father too,
Ooh! ooh! When we made our debut
And the old stork flew-and before they knew-
There were two litttle girls in blue,
Not one-
But two little girls in blue.
