I’m Hans Christian Andersen Danny Kaye

[Verse 1]
I'm Hans Christian Andersen
I've many a tale to tell
And, though I'm a cobbler, I'd say
I tell them rather well

I'll mend your shoes and I'll fix your boots
When I have a moment free
When I'm not otherwise occupied
As a purple duck or a mountain side
Or a quarter after three

I'm Hans Christian Andersen
Andersen, that's me!

[Verse 2]
I'm Hans Christian Andersen
I bring you a fable rare
There once was a table who said
"Oh, how I'd love a chair"

And then and there came a sweet young chair
All dressеd in a bridal gown
He said to her in a voice so truе
"Now I did not say I would marry you
But I would like to sit down"
