lyrics

Calcutta (In a Nutshell)

I’ve never once been to Calcutta
Waited months for the monsoon
I’ve never once been to Samoa
Where mosquitoes cloud the moon
I’ve never even seen Niagara
Fell from heaven, into the well
In a Nutshell.
It serves me well …

And I don’t know how you do it
‘Cos I won’t even try
Oh I don’t know how you do it
‘Cos I won’t even try

I’ve never once been to Calcutta
Holy Cow ! Amazing Grace !
I’ve never once been to Samoa
Me and the Jungle, face to face
I’ve never even seen Niagara
Crossed the rapids, rang the bell
In a Nutshell

It serves me well …

And I don’t know how you do it
‘Cos I won’t even try
Oh I don’t know how you do it
‘Cos I won’t even try

My trip around the world
Is being here with you
But if you travel the world
I’ll be right here with you…
Right here
Right here…
With you….
