Medley: I Whistle A Happy Tune / The Girl That I Marry / Cabaret / Mame / Hello, Dolly! |
Whenever I feel afraid |
I hold my head erect |
And whistle a happy tune |
So no one will suspect I’m afraid |
While shivering in my shoes |
I strike a careless pose |
And whistle a happy tune |
And no one ever knows I’m afraid |
The result of this deception |
Is very strange to tell |
For when I fool the people I fear |
I fool myself as well |
I whistle a happy tune |
And every single time |
The happiness in the tune |
Convinces me that I’m not afraid |
Make believe you’re brave |
And the trick will take you far |
You may be as brave |
As you make believe you are |
You may be as brave |
As you make believe you are! |
The girl that I marry will have to be |
As soft and as pink as a nursery |
The girl I call my own |
Will wear satin and laces and smell of cologne |
Her nails will be polished and in her hair |
She’ll wear a gardenia and I’ll be there |
Stead of flittin', I’ll be sittin' |
Next to her and she’ll purr like a kitten |
A doll I can carry |
The girl that I marry must be! |
What good is sitting alone in your room |
Come hear the music play |
Life is a Cabaret old chum |
Come to the Cabaret |
Put down the knitting |
The book and the broom |
Time for a holiday |
Life is Cabaret old chum |
Come to the Cabaret |
Come taste the wine, come hear the band |
Come blow your horn, start celebrating |
Right this way your table’s waiting |
No use permitting some prophet of doom |
To wipe every smile away |
Life is a Cabaret old chum |
Only a caberet old chum |
So come to the Cabaret! |
You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame |
You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame |
You’ve got the banjoes strummin' |
And plunkin' out a tune to beat the band |
The whole plantation’s hummin' |
You brought Dixie back to Dixie land |
You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame |
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame |
You make the old magnolia tree |
Blossom at the mention of your name |
You’ve made us feel alive again |
You’ve given us the drive again |
To make the South revive again, Mame! |
You make the cotton easy to pick, Mame |
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame |
You make the old magnolia tree |
Blossom at the mention of your name |
You’re special fascination’ll |
Proved to be inspirational |
We think you’re just sensational, Mame! |
Hello, hello Dolly, well hello Dolly |
It’s so nice to have you back where you belong |
You’re looking swell Dolly, we can tell Dolly |
You’re still glowin', you’re still crowin', you’re still goin' strong |
We feel the room swayin' for the band’s playin' |
One of your old favorite songs from way back when |
So… take her wrap fellas |
Find her an empty lap fellas |
Dolly you’ll never go away again! |
We feel the room swayin' for the band’s playin' |
One of your old favorite songs from way back when |
So… golly gee fellas |
Find her a vacant big knee fellas |
Dolly you’ll never go away |
Dolly you’ll never go away |
Dolly you’ll never go away again! |
