Suburban Eyes (10-15-47) |
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? |
