Ruth Etting - "Could I? I Certainly Could!" lyrics
I beg to announce to you,
With men I'm completely through,
Finished with them all, big or small, short or tall!
The door to my heart is shut,
No more will I lose my nut
Over movie stars, sheiks in Packard cars,
I hate all the men!
But:
Could I care for that big boy there,
With the dimples and wavy hair'
Oh, could I' I certainly could!
Could I sit on that papa's knee'
Could I let him "sweet mama" me'
Could I' I certainly could!
What lovin' wouldn't he get, wouldn't he get'
Hot oven, couldn't we pet, couldn't we pet'
Could I take him on moonlight trips,
Fry sweet kisses on those hot lips'
Could I' I certainly could!
With men I'm completely through,
Finished with them all, big or small, short or tall!
The door to my heart is shut,
No more will I lose my nut
Over movie stars, sheiks in Packard cars,
I hate all the men!
But:
Could I care for that big boy there,
With the dimples and wavy hair'
Oh, could I' I certainly could!
Could I sit on that papa's knee'
Could I let him "sweet mama" me'
Could I' I certainly could!
What lovin' wouldn't he get, wouldn't he get'
Hot oven, couldn't we pet, couldn't we pet'
Could I take him on moonlight trips,
Fry sweet kisses on those hot lips'
Could I' I certainly could!
[Piano vamping]
Could I' I certainly could!
[Piano vamping]
Could I' I certainly could!
[Piano vamping]
Could I' I certainly could!
Could I care for those big brown eyes'
Could I buy him his shirts and ties'
Oh, could I' I certainly could!
Could I care for those great big arms'
Could I care for his lovin' charms'
Could I' I certainly could!
What lovin' wouldn't he get, wouldn't he get'
Hot oven, couldn't we pet, couldn't we pet'
Could I give him a thrill or two'
Are you asking' Well, I'm telling you!
Could I' I certainly could!
Could I' I certainly could!
[Piano vamping]
Could I' I certainly could!
[Piano vamping]
Could I' I certainly could!
Could I care for those big brown eyes'
Could I buy him his shirts and ties'
Oh, could I' I certainly could!
Could I care for those great big arms'
Could I care for his lovin' charms'
Could I' I certainly could!
What lovin' wouldn't he get, wouldn't he get'
Hot oven, couldn't we pet, couldn't we pet'
Could I give him a thrill or two'
Are you asking' Well, I'm telling you!
Could I' I certainly could!
