| The man who only lives for making money |
| Lives a life that isn’t necessarily sunny |
| Likewise the man who works for fame |
| There’s no guarantee that time won’t erase his name |
| The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment |
| Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant |
| Fall in love and you won’t regret it That’s the best work of all, if you can get it Chorus: |
| Holding hands at midnight |
| 'Neath a starry sky |
| Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try |
| Strolling with the one girl |
| Sighing sigh after sigh |
| Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try |
| Just imagine someone |
| Waiting at the cottage door |
| Where two hearts become one |
| Who could ask for anything more? |
| Loving one who loves you |
| And then taking that vow |
| It’s nice work if you can get it And if you get it, won’t you tell me how? |
