Lyrics to Once Upon A Mattress - The Swamps Of Home
Once Upon A Mattress - The Swamps Of Home Video:
Winnifred: I come from the land of the foggy, foggy dew ooh-ooh-ooh!
Ooh-ooh-ooh! Ooh-ooh-ooh!
Where walking through the meadow in the morning is like walking through glue!
The swamps of home are brushed with green and gold at break of day.

Dauntless: At break of day.
Winnifred: The swamps of home are lovely to behold from far away.
Dauntless: From far away.
Winnifred: In my soul is the beauty of the bog, in my memory the magic of the mud.
I know that blood is thicker than water but the swamps of home are thicker than blood.
Dauntless: Blo-o-od!
Winnifred: Where e'er I roam my heart grows dank and cold,
my face grows gray when shadows fall and I hear the call...
of the swamps of home.
Ladies: Ah...
Winnifred: I hear them calling me now, calling me back, calling me Winnifred,
Winnifred, Winnifred, Winnifred, who do you think you are?
Girl of the swamp,
Ladies: Winnifred, Winnifred
Winnifred: You've gone to far!
Maid of the marshland, give up the struggle!
Listen to the voice of the swamp;
gluggle-uggle-uggle.
Ladies: gluggle-uggle-uggle.
Winnifred: Where e'er I roam. The whips of fate may smart, but deep down in my heart
Ladies: ooh...
Winnifred: One thought will abide and will ne'er be forgotten,
though I search far and wide there is no land as rotten...
Ladies: Rotten, rotten, rotten, Rotten, rotten, rotten, Rotten, rotten, rotten...
Winnifred: As the swamps of home.
Winnifred, Dauntless & Ladies: The swamps of home!
