A finger hewn-planted and sewn
Oh magic in her hands-she could make anything grow
Magic in her hands - she had green fingers
It's curious
Where animals don't go
Mandrake-rooted deep into the soil
Where the sun won't fall but it flourishes
See the pretty maids all in a row
Chorus
It's reaching
And groping a clammy handshake
Clawing the ivy
Crawling the tightrope along the lattice work
With this hand i thee wed
With this hand i thee bed
With this hand i . . .
Hibiscus head-in a flower bed A finger hewn-planted and sewn Oh magic in her hands-she could make anything grow Magic in her hands - she had green fingers It's curious Where animals don't go Mandrake-rooted deep into the soil Where the sun won't fall but it flourishes See the pretty maids all in a row Chorus It's reaching And groping a clammy handshake Clawing the ivy Crawling the tightrope along the lattice work With this hand i thee wed With this hand i thee bed With this hand i . . .
