Beauty Mark Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never had it, I never wanted it
I never had your beauty mark
Nor did I have your black hair and hazel eyes
My early childhood was not as simple
As yours set in the country
No, I did not have a fear of nuns who dressed in black

[Refrain]
But I do have your taste

[Verse 2]
I had no radio show
Nor did I have homemade clothes
Homemade curtains of the same material
I never had it, I never wanted it
I never had your beauty mark, beauty mark

[Refrain]
But I do have your taste
And I do have your red face
And long hands

[Verse 3]
I think Callas sang a lovely Norma
You prefer Robeson in "Deep River"
I may not be so manly but still, I know you love me
Even if I don't have your beauty mark, beauty mark
