Lyrics
Sweet Little Mina ? 2008 Tom Hoelle My boss says I?ve got a good shot at a partnership He even sent me on my own on this critical business trip My predecessor must?ve been outclassed He couldn?t seem to handle this task So I?ll close the deal and I?ll show ?em all who?s really the best! There?s a wealthy old Count who?s the last of his clan I?m told He wants to buy property in town from the deeds I hold When I settle this deal and come back My career?s gonna take a fast track And I?m gonna marry my Sweet Little Mina at last! - chorus - She?s my Sweet Little Mina There?s nothing in the whole wide world that could come between us Her eyes light up with her smile With a look that was born to beguile And though we?ve been in love all this while Until this trip is over I could only hope to hold her in my dreams This count seems a little eccentric but I guess it?s ok Since he?s buying up a lot of old property from so far away I didn?t even put up a fight When he insisted on meeting at night ?Cause the first rule of business is ?the customer?s always right? Well, I?ve never been so far from my own little neighborhood And this land seems more desolate, somehow, than I understood But when I settle this deal and come back My career?s gonna take a fast track And I?m gonna marry my Sweet Little Mina at last! - chorus - She?s my Sweet Little Mina There?s nothing in the whole wide world that could come between us Her eyes light up with her smile With a look that was born to beguile And though we?ve been in love all this while Until this trip is over I could only hope to hold her in my dreams Civilization?s long since gone and yet we tarry on Through the highlands, the lowlands, the wetlands and the barren lands beyond My destination?s still not in sight I?m surrounded by increasing signs of plight And there?s a feeling in the air there?s something here that?s just not right After days on the road this is getting fairly old to me Being a businessman abroad?s not all they always said it would be But when I settle this deal and come back My career?s gonna take a fast track And I?m gonna marry my Sweet Little Mina at last She?s my Sweet Little Mina There?s nothing in the whole wide world that could come between us She?s my Sweet Little Mina She?s my Sweet Little Mina?
