Lyrics

I'm bidin' my time
'Cause that's the kinda girl I'm
While other folks grow dizzy
I keep busy
Bidin' my time
Next year, next year
Somethin's bound to happen
This year, this year
I'll just keep on nappin'
And bidin' my time
'Cause that's the kinda girl I'm
There's no regrettin'
When I'm settin'
Bidin' my time
Bidin' my time
Bidin' my time
Beginnin' on Monday
Right through Sunday
Bidin' my time
Give me, give me
Glass that's full of tinkle
Let me, let me
Dream like Rip Van Winkle
He bided his time
And like that Winkle guy, I'm
Chasin' 'way flies
How the day flies
Bidin' my time
Bidin' my time
Bidin' my time
Bidin' my time
Written by: George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
