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
|
|
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?"
|
|
[Bridge]
|
|
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
|
Nice work if you can get it
|
And if you get it, won't you tell me how?"

Nice Work If You Can Get It
