Mary Martin - I've Gotta Crow lyrics

rate me

WENDY:<br />

You’re conceited!<br />

<br />

PETER PAN:<br />

Conceited?<br />

Not me,<br />

It's just that I am what I am<br />

And I'm me!<br />

When I look at myself<br />

And I see in myself<br />

All the wonderful things that I see<br />

If I'm pleased with myself<br />

I have ev'ry good reason to be.<br />

<br />

I've gotta crow!<br />

I'm just the cleverest fellow <br />

'Twas ever my fortune to know;<br />

I taught a trick to my shadow<br />

To stick to the tip of my toe<br />

I've gotta crow!<br />

<br />

I've gotta brag!<br />

I think it's sweet<br />

I have fingers and feet I can wiggle and wag.<br />

I can climb trees and play tag with the breeze <br />

In the meadows below<br />

I've gotta crow!<br />

<br />

If I were a very ordinary<br />

Ev'ry day thing, <br />

I'd never be heard cock-a-doodling<br />

'Round like a bird!<br />

<br />

So Naturally<br />

When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me,<br />

How can I hide it <br />

When deep down inside it just tickles me so<br />

That I've gotta let go and crow!<br />

<br />

I'm really a rare thing,<br />

Such a fair thing,<br />

I can't keep still!<br />

I'm bursting with pride<br />

And I just couldn't keep it inside<br />

If I tried so...<br />

<br />

Naturally<br />

When I discover the cleverness of a remarkable me,<br />

How can I hide it <br />

When deep down inside it just tickles me so<br />

That I've gotta let go and crow!

<br />
