[WINNIFRED, spoken]Oh, I don't like to brag. [DAUNTLESS, spoken]No, please. [WINNIFRED]I come from the land of the foggy, foggy dewOoh-ooh-oohWhere walking through the meadow in the morningIs like walking through glue(Ooh-ooh-ooh)The swamps of homeAre brushed with green and goldAt break of day...[LADIES]At break of day...[WINNIFRED]The swamps of homeAre lovely to beholdFrom far away...[LADIES]From far away...[WINNIFRED]In my soul is the beauty of thе bogIn my mem'ry the magic of the mud[LADIES]Mu-uh-ud[WINNIFRED]I know that blood is thickеr than waterBut the swamps of homeAre thicker than blood![DAUNTLESS]Bluh-uh-ud[WINNIFRED]Where e'er I roamMy heart grows dank and coldMy face grows grey--When shadows fall and I hear the callOf the swamps of homeI hear them calling me now, calling me backCalling me: "Winnifred! Winnifred! Winnifred! Winnifred!Who do you think you are?Girl of the swamp, you've gone too farMaid of the marshland, give up the struggleListen to the voice of the swamp:Gluggle uggle uggle!"[LADIES]"Gluggle uggle uggle!"[WINNIFRED]Where e'er I roamThe whips of fate may smartBut deep down in my heartOne thought will abideAnd will ne'er be forgottenThough 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[ALL]The swamps of home
