Lyrics You Can't Brush Me Off - Dinah Shore, Dick Todd's Orchestra, Ирвинг Берлин

You Can't Brush Me Off

Why don’t you just give in?
Just like a Siamese twin
I mean to stick to you
Until you do I won’t take it on the chin
You’ll never leave me flat
I’m not a «last year’s hat»
That you can cast aside
I’ve got my pride
And I won’t stand for that
You can’t brush me off
As you would a speck of powder, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can’t shout me down
You can yell but I’ll yell louder, you can try
But you can’t brush me off
You can say you’re out but I’ll keep phoning
You can tell me goodbye
You can tell me but I Won’t go No You can’t leave me cold
As you would a plate of chowder, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
What is this all about?
You’ve got me wrong, no doubt
I give you all my time
Believe me, I’m
Not looking for some way out
I want you for my wife
Sharing my care and strife
And that may not be fun
For when it’s done
You’re stuck with me for life
You can’t brush me off
As you would a fresh mosquito, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can’t rub me out
Like a spot on my tuxedo, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can cut me dead but I won’t mind it You may injure my pride
Still I’ll never decide
To go No
You can’t drop me fast
As you would a live torpedo, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can’t brush me off
Like a colored pullman porter, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can’t lock me out
Like a frightened farmer’s daughter, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
You can drop a hint but I won’t take it You can tell me bad news
I intend to refuse
To go No
You can’t give me back
As you would a leaded quarter, you may try
But you can’t brush me off
