If I Only Had A Brain Lyrics
Conferrin' with the flowers,
Consulting with the rain;
And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts are busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
Individdle
In trouble or in pain
You could be another Lincoln
If you only had a brain.
The oceans near the shore
I could think of things I'd never
Thunk before,
And then I'd sit down and think some more.
My head all full of stuffin',
My heart all full of pain;
And perhaps I'd deserve you and be
Even worthy even you
If I only had a brain.
Did you know that they cut the original song, thus cutting the last verse of this song? Yes ideady! Though, I've got to say, it was mostly a very lengthly dance.
Cut verse (at the end):
Gosh, it would be pleasin' To reason out the reason To things I can't explain And perhaps I'll deserve ya And be worthy erve ya If I only had a brain

"If I Only Had a Brain" has very malleable lyrics, and I find myself remembering many catchy phrases that aren't there when I look 'em up.
In this case, I think you remember the equally zippy tune "Sunny Side of the Street":
"If I never have a cent I'd be rich as Rockefeller I'd have gold dust at my feet on the sunny On the sunny on the sunny side of the street"
I thought I remembered a line "I'd be rich as Rockefeller if I only had a brain" - anyone else?
i luv this song its amazin 'if i only had a brain' lol
This is the theoretical life!
