Three wishes lyrics

Reached back for the bottle

And rubbed against the lamp

Genie came out smiling

Like some Eastern tramp

He said hey boy what's happening?

What is going on?

You can have three wishes

If you don't take too long

If you don't take too long

I said, well

I wish they were all happy in the Lebanon

Wish somebody’d help me write this song

I wish when I was young

My old man had not been gone

Genie said consider it done

Oh, there's something in the air

And you don't know what it is

You see someone through the window

Who you've just learned to miss

And the road leads on to glory

But you've used up your last wish

Your last wish

And you want her to come home

Bring her home!

Genie said I'm sorry

But that's the way it goes

Where the hell's the lamp, sucker

It's time for me to go

Bye

Oh, there's something in the air

And you don't know what it is

You see someone through the window

Who you've just learned to miss

And the road leads on to glory

But you've used up your last wish

Your last wish

And you want her to come home
