Lyrics
Lady, Lady Bountiful
How happy you could make me
But there are a county full
Of men all glad to take me
They are brave and gallant
All of them have talent
What have you to offer
If my hand I proffer?
Lady, Lady Bountiful
I do not like to boast
But I am sure that my talents offer most
How about a man who can fill you with romance?
Ugh, please
How about a man who could lead you in a dance?
Ow, your feet are killing me
How about a man who's strong as steel?
How about a man with sex appeal?
How can you refuse me?
Surely you can use me
How about a man who is full of tenderness?
Well, you're no Valentino
How about a man who can button up a dress?
Allow me
Oh! Oh!
Oops
Lady, lovely lady, here's your cue
How about a man like me for you?
How about a man can recite like Edwin Booth?
If music be the love of food—
How about a man sang soprano in his youth?
Ave Maria
How about a man who's six feet tall?
How about a man who's five feet small?
Why remain a widow?
Kiss me quick, old kiddo
How about a man who can whistle like a lark?
How about a man who can row you in the park?
Lady, lovely lady, here's your cue
My cue
How about a man like me for you?
