Irving Berlin - Settle Down In A One-Horse Town lyrics

[1st verse:] I'm getting tired of the glare and light I've had enough of staying out at night There's nothing in it, honey, honor bright I'm through, all through A little cottage in a One-Horse Town That's where I'd like to go and settle down I'd be as proud as if I wore a crown If I had you [Refrain:] Come, let's settle down In some small country town Away from all this care and strife Far, far away from Cabarets We'll stay among the Jays And live the quiet simple life And from the time the rooster calls I'll wear my overalls And you'll wear a simple gingham gown So if you're strong for a shower of rice We could make a Paradise Out of a One-Horse Town [2nd verse:] I love the city with its buildings tall I love apartments with a great big hall The place you speak of would be much too small For me, sweetheart I'd rather live upon Fifth Avenue The simple life for me would never do I really couldn't go away with you When do we start?
