I will be your dust pan
If you'll be my broom
We could work together
All around the room

I will be your clothes pin
Be my pulley line
We'll hang out together
Wouldn't that be fine

I will be your dish pan
If you'll be my dish
We'll meet after meals dear
What more could you wish

I will be your window
Be my window shade
That's a porter's love song
To a chambermaid.
