The Secret Garden the Musical - If I Had A Fine White Horse Lyrics

MARTHA:
If I had a fine white horse,
I'd take you for a ride today.
But since I have no fine white horse
Inside I'll have to stay,
And empty all the chamber pots
And scrub the floors and such.
But what's there to do on a fine white horse?
It seems to me not much.

If I had a wooden boat,
I'd take you for a sail today.
But since I have no wooden boat
Inside I'll have to stay
And catch and kill the mice,
And pluck the chickens for the cook

But what's there to do on a wooden boat,
But sit up straight and look?

And worry our boat will start to drift
And float us out to sea...
And land us on an isle of gold,
Oh dear, oh dearie me...

If I had a chamber maid,
I'd take you out to play today.
They say out there's a maze where
Once you enter, there you stay.
For certain we'd get lost and they'd
Come loomn' for our bones.
And find us sometime late next week
And bring us tea and scones.

But what if there's a clan of
Trolls a campin' neath a tree?
Or what if there's a pirates' cave,
Oh dear oh dear oh dearie me...

If I wasn't so afraid,
I'd take you out the door today.
But talking birds and tales of fairies
Keep me scared away.
And yes, I promised not to tell what
Else is there, although...
If in the maze you chance to see
A garden guarded by a tree,
And meet a bird that speaks to thee...
Then come and tell my fine white horse
And me
