BARBRA STREISAND - Ballad of The Garment Trade lyrics

rate me

If you don't want to get nervous

Do yourself a great big service

Stay away please far from seventh avenue

You can lose your sense and reason

Guessing what style for next season

Yesthe dress business will make a wreck of you

It's a battle of fierce and grim

That depends on the ladies' whim

What'll miss and misses america's answer be

Will she say with a tossing head

And that rare guy wouldn't drop dead

Or she'll say : yesthis dress is really me

On guessing whata day will say

A sheer impossibility

This poor kid's bravehe worked away

And try to build that industry

How crazybold and reckless

Can human beings be...

Hiphiphooray! for the garment trade

Hear the cheer to push the music hits us everyone

Day after day...they go on this way

To the cockeyed way the job that must be done

Off to the fray on the brave crusade

Gallant ladies' garment trade

Though in health got speed

In a gesture breedmade all answers on parade

What a business what a sack game

Yet it's about as much your business is a crap game

Snapperzipperbowlerbutton

All we know is what the experts know from nothin'

So the last line you got pie with

Coming right up is another you could die with

If you're right the dough could flow in

If you're not you haven't got a pot to sew with

Off to the fray on the brave crusade

Gallant ladies' garment trade

Though in health got speed

In a gesture breedmade all answers on parade

Off to the fray on the brave crusade

Gallant ladies' garment trade

Though in health got speed

In a gesture breedmade all answers on parade...
