42nd Street movie - Young and Healthy lyrics

rate me

<br>

Billy Lawlor:<br>

I know a bundle of humanity,<br>

She's about so high;<br>

I'm nearly driven to insanity,<br>

When she passes by.<br>

She's a sunny little honey,<br>

But oh so hard to kiss;<br>

I'll try to overcome her vanity,<br>

And then I'll tell her this:<br>

<br>

I'm young and healthy,<br>

And you've got charms;<br>

It would really be a sin<br>

Not to have you in my arms.<br>

I'm young and healthy,<br>

And so are you;<br>

When the moon is in the sky<br>

Tell me what am I to do?<br>

<br>

If I could hate "yuh,"<br>

I'd keep away;<br>

That ain't my nature,<br>

I'm full of vitamin "A," say!<br>

<br>

[Spoken]<br>

Say kid! Now you go to it!<br>

<br>

Peggy Sawyer:<br>

To what!?!<br>

<br>

Billy Lawlor:<br>

Your first notes on Broadway!<br>

<br>

Peggy Sawyer:<br>

I'm young and healthy,<br>

And you've got charms;<br>

It would really be a sin<br>

Not to have you in my arms.<br>

I'm young and healthy,<br>

And so are you;<br>

When the moon is in the sky<br>

Tell me what am I to do?<br>

<br>

If I could hate "yuh,"<br>

I'd keep away;<br>

That ain't my nature,<br>

I'm full of vitamin "A," say!<br>

<br>

I'm young and healthy,<br>

So let's be bold;<br>

In a year or two or three,<br>

Maybe we will be <br>

Too old. <br>
