Helen Sjöholm - Wherever He Ain't

From Trettondagskonsert 2010 - Wherever He Ain't (from Mack & Mabel, 1974) I've gotta give my life some sparkle and fizz And think a thought that isn't wrapped up in his The place that I consider Paradise is Wherever he ain't, wherever he ain't! No more to wither when he's grouchy and gruff, No more to listen to him bellow and bluff Tomorrow morning I'll be struttin' my stuff Wherever he ain't, wherever he ain't Enough of being bullied and bossed Ta-ta, auf wiedersehen and get lost! I walked behind him like a meek little lamb And had my fill of his not givin' a damn I'll go to Sidney or Ceylon or Siam Wherever he ain't, wherever he ain't! It's time for little Nell to rebel If he's in heaven, I'll go to hell My little love nest was a terrible trap With me behaving like a simpering sap And so I'm lookin' for a spot on the map If he 's goin' south, I'm goin' north If he's goin' back, I'm goin' forth Wherever he ain't
