The Best Gift — текст песни (Barbra Streisand)

The best gift

That I ever got

Didnt really weigh a lot

It didnt have a ribbon round

And it sometimes made the terrible sound

The best of all it seems to me

It wasnt neath the christmas tree

And yet, I guess Id have to say

That it made all the other presents twice as gay

The best gift that Ive ever known

Id always wanted most to own

Yet in my dreams of sugar and spice

I never thought it could be so nice

The best gift that I ever get

Was sometimes dry and sometimes wet

Was usually pink but oftentimes red

As it lay so innocently in its bed

The best gift of the year to me

The one I hold most dear to me

A gift that simply drove me wild

Was a tiny new born child...
