Oowah Oowah ah ah ah-ah,   Oowah Oowah ah 


E                   G#m              D                    C# 
My old desk does an arabesque in the morning when I first arrive. 
       A                     G# 
It?s a pleasure to see, it?s waiting there for me 
           C#m      E   
to keep my hopes alive. 


       A                        C                      
Such a comfort to know it?s got no place to go, 
     E        C#     
It?s always there. 
         A                     C                      
It?s the one thing I?ve got, a huge success, 
   E 
My good old desk. 

My old desk never needs a rest and I?ve never once heard it cry. 
I?ve never seen it tease it?s always there to please me 
From nine to five. 

Such a comfort to know it?s dependable and slow, 
But it?s always there. 
It?s the one friend I?ve got, a giant of all times, 
My good old desk. 

Oowah Oowah ah ah ah-ah Oowah Oowah ah 

My old desk isn?t picturesque, but it?s happy as a desk can be.  
We never say a word,  
but it?s perfectly alright with me. 

For when my hearts feeling low,  
I just open the drawer of my favorite desk. 
And what do I see? 
But a picture of me working at my good old desk. 

Oowah Oowah ah ah ah-ah Oowah Oowah ah
