| [00:04.97] |
She climbs a tree |
| [00:05.97] |
And scrapes her knee |
| [00:07.15] |
Her dress has got a tear. |
| [00:09.40] |
She waltzes on her way to mass |
| [00:11.77] |
And whistles on the stair. |
| [00:14.14] |
And underneath her wimpole |
| [00:16.08] |
She has curlers in her hair! |
| [00:18.57] |
I ever hear her singing in the abbey. |
| [00:22.25] |
|
| [00:23.44] |
She's always late for chapel, |
| [00:25.25] |
But her penitence is real. |
| [00:27.99] |
She's always late for everything, |
| [00:30.18] |
Except for every meal. |
| [00:32.37] |
I hate to have to say it |
| [00:34.55] |
But I very firmly feel |
| [00:37.04] |
Maria's not an asset to the abbey! |
| [00:40.85] |
|
| [00:41.79] |
I'd like to say a word in her behalf. |
| [00:44.88] |
|
| [00:47.06] |
Maria makes me laugh! |
| [00:49.87] |
|
| [00:54.05] |
How do you solve a problem like Maria? |
| [00:56.55] |
|
| [00:57.86] |
How do you catch a cloud and pin it down? |
| [01:01.29] |
|
| [01:02.16] |
How do you find a word that means Maria? |
| [01:04.97] |
|
| [01:06.09] |
A flibberti gibbet! |
| [01:07.34] |
A willo' the wisp! |
| [01:08.40] |
A clown! |
| [01:08.69] |
|
| [01:10.88] |
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her, |
| [01:14.06] |
|
| [01:14.62] |
Many a thing she ought to understand. |
| [01:17.99] |
|
| [01:18.74] |
But how do you make her stay |
| [01:20.98] |
And listen to all you say, |
| [01:23.23] |
How do you keep a wave upon the sand? |
| [01:26.41] |
|
| [01:27.10] |
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria? |
| [01:30.34] |
|
| [01:31.53] |
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand? |
| [01:39.02] |
|
| [01:41.45] |
When I'm with her I'm confused, |
| [01:43.38] |
Out of focus and bemused, |
| [01:44.94] |
And I never know exactly where I am. |
| [01:49.25] |
Unpredictable as weather, |
| [01:50.87] |
She's as flighty as a feather, |
| [01:52.74] |
She's a darling, |
| [01:53.62] |
She's a demon, |
| [01:54.55] |
She's a lamb. |
| [01:56.55] |
She'd out-pester any pest, |
| [01:58.36] |
Drive a hornet from his nest, |
| [02:00.24] |
She can throw a whirling dervish |
| [02:02.16] |
Out of whirl. |
| [02:03.54] |
|
| [02:04.10] |
She is gentle, |
| [02:05.04] |
She is wild, |
| [02:06.22] |
She's a riddle. |
| [02:06.91] |
She's a child. |
| [02:07.78] |
She's a headache! |
| [02:08.84] |
She's an angel! |
| [02:10.78] |
She's a girl. |
| [02:14.21] |
|
| [02:15.64] |
How do you solve a problem like Maria? |

|
| [02:20.07] |

| [02:23.07] |
|

| [02:28.31] |
A flibberti gibbet! |
| [02:29.52] |
A willo' the wisp! |
| [02:30.39] |
A clown! |
| [02:31.65] |
|
| [02:32.70] |
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her, |
| [02:35.89] |
|
| [02:36.64] |
Many a thing she ought to understand. |
| [02:38.94] |
|
| [02:40.69] |
But how do you make her say, |
| [02:42.81] |
And listen to all you say? |
| [02:45.06] |
How do you keep a wave upon the sand? |
| [02:47.93] |
|
| [02:48.68] |
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria? |
| [02:52.61] |
|
| [02:54.92] |
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand? |
