You Can't Have Him |
| You can have him |
| I don’t want him |
| He’s not worth fighting for |
| Besides there’s plenty more where he came from |
| I don’t want him |
| You can have him |
| I’m giving him the sack |
| And he can go right back where he came from |
| I could never make him happy |
| He’d be better off with you |
| I’m afraid I never loved him |
| All I ever wanted to do was |
| Run my fingers thru his curly locks |
| Mend his underwear and darn his socks |
| Fetch his slippers and remove his shoes |
| Wipe his glasses when he read the news |
| Rub his forehead with a gentle touch |
| Mornings after when he’s had too much |
| Kiss him gently when he cuddled near |
| Give him babies one for ev’ry year, so you see |
| I don’t want him, you can have him |
| You can have him, I don’t want him |
| For he’s not the man for me |
| You can have him |
| I don’t want him |
| He’s not worth fighting for |
| Besides there’s plenty more where he came from |
| I don’t want him |
| You can have him |
| He isn’t my concern |
| And he can just return where he came from |
| I would look a trifle silly |
| Taking him away from you |
| That was never my intention |
| All I ever wanted to do was |
| Close the window while he soundly slept |
| Raid the icebox where the food is kept |
| Cook a breakfast that would please him most |
| Eggs and coffee and some buttered toast |
| Wake him gently with a breakfast tray |
| After breakfast clear the things away |
| Bring the papers and when they’ve been read |
| Spend the balance of the day in bed, so you see |
| I don’t want him, you can have him |
| You can have him, I don’t want him |
| For he’s not the man for me |
