| Now, before this modern idea had burst
|
| About the women and children first
|
| The men had much more charm than they have today
|
| And if only one of that type survived
|
| The very moment that he arrived
|
| I know I’d fall in love in a great big way
|
| I can’t imagine being bad
|
| With any Arrow collar ad
|
| Nor could I take the slightest joy
|
| In waking up a college boy
|
| I’ve no desire to be alone
|
| With Rudy Vallee’s megaphone
|
| So when I’m saying my prayers, I say:
|
| Find me a primitive man
|
| Built on a primitive plan
|
| Someone with vigor and vim
|
| I don’t mean a kind that belongs to a club
|
| But the kind that has a club that belongs to him
|
| I could be the personal slave
|
| Of someone just out of a cave
|
| The only man who’ll ever win me
|
| Has gotta wake up the gypsy in me
|
| Find me a primitive man
|
| Find me a primitive man
|
| Trouve moi un homme primitif
|
| Trouve moi un garcon naif
|
| Quelqu’un tout plein de vigeur
|
| Ces p’tits maquereaux qu’on appelle gigolos ne
|
| Pourraient jamais donner le vrai bonheur
|
| J’ai besoin d’un bel animal
|
| Pour chauffeur mon chaffage centrale
|
| Et l’homme qui me veut pour capitane
|
| Devrait reveiler mon sang tzigane
|
| Trouve moi un homme primitif, vif
|
| Trouve moi un homme primitif
|
| (Find me a primitive man
|
| Find me a forthright young lad
|
| Someone with vigor to spare
|
| Those fatuous beaux they call gigolos could never give me happiness
|
| I must have a gorgeous beast
|
| To heat up my own central heat
|
| And he who aspires to be my stud
|
| Must reawake my gypsy blood
|
| Find me a primitive man.) |
