Nice Work If You Can Get It (from “A Damsel in Distress”)

The man who only lives for makin' 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, you won't regret it
That's the best work of all if you can get it
Holdin' hands at midnight
'Neath a starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
Strollin' with the one boy
Sighin' sigh aftеr sigh
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
Just imaginе someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
Lovin' one who loves you
And then takin' that vow
Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
Lovin' one who loves you
And then takin' that vow
Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
Mm, tell me how
Ooh, tell me how
