You'd Be Surprised<br>

[1st verse:]<br>

Johnny was bashful and shy<br>

Nobody understood why<br>

Mary loved him<br>

All the other girls passed him by<br>

Everyone wanted to know<br>

How she could pick such a beau<br>

With a twinkle in her eye<br>

She made this reply<br>

<br>

[1st chorus:]<br>

He's not so good in a crowd but when you get him alone<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

He isn't much at a dance but then when he takes you home<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

<br>

He doesn't look like much of a lover<br>

But don't judge a book by it's cover<br>

He's got the face of an angel<br>

But there's a devil in his eyes<br>

<br>

He's such a delicate thing but when he starts in to squeeze<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

He doesn't look very strong but when you sit on his knees<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

<br>

At a party or at a ball<br>

I've got to admit that he's nothing at all<br>

But in an easy chair<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

<br>

[2nd verse:]<br>

Mary continued to praise<br>

Johnny's remarkable ways<br>

To the ladies<br>

And you know advertising pays<br>

Now Johnny's never alone<br>

He has the busiest phone<br>

Almost ev'ry other day<br>

A new girl will say<br>

<br>

[2nd chorus:]<br>

He's not so good in the house but on a bench in the park<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

He isn't much in the light but when he gets in the dark<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

I know he looks so slow and so weary<br>

But you don't know the half of it, dearie<br>

He looks as cold as an Eskimo<br>

But there's a fire in his eyes<br>

He doesn't say very much but when he starts in to speak<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

He's not so good at the start but at the end of the week<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

On a streetcar or on a train<br>

You'd think he was born without any brain<br>

But in a taxicab<br>

You'd be surprised<br>

<br>
