why can't i? - rodgers and hart lyrics
(verse)
[betty]
darling, don’t leave me
i’m so lonesome tonight
nothing is right
with me
[mary jane]
you can’t deceive me
what you need is romance
something in pants
said she
[betty]
you’re so clever
but i never
thought you ever
knew
[mary jane]
my maiden’s prayer
leaves me weak as a cat
for i am that
way too
(chorus 1)
[betty]
feeling the way i do
i’d like to say, “i do!”
heaving a heavenly sigh
everybody has someone
why can’t i?
creeping to bed alone
resting my head alone
only the pillow nearby
some have a reason for dreaming
why can’t i?
i feel forsaken
on nights like this
can’t i awaken
to someone’s kiss?
only my book in bed
knows how i look in bed
n-body hears when i cry
everybody has someone
why can’t i?
(chorus 2)
{mary jane]
feeling the way i do
i’d like to say, “i do!”
nature is hard to deny
everybody has someone
why can’t i?
if love brings merriment
i must experiment
with some electrical guy
even old maids find a burglar
why can’t i?
should girls be good girls?
i think they should
i need a good man
to make me be good
two feet are ever cold
four feet are never cold
i only mean to imply
everybody does something
why can’t i?
