Count Basie - Anything Goes lyrics

rate me

In olden days a glimpse of stocking

Was looked on as something shocking

Now heaven knows, anything

Goes

Good authors too who once knew better words

Now only use four letter words writing

Prose

Anything goes

The world has gone mad today

And good's bad today

And black's white today

And day's night today

When most guys today that women prize today

Are just silly gigolos

So though I'm

Not a great romancer

I know that you're bound to answer

When I propose, anything goes
