Rodgers And Hammerstein - All Er Nothin lyrics
rate me[Will]<br />
You'll have to be a little more standoffish,<br />
When fellers offer you a buggy ride.<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
I'll give a imitation of a crawfish,<br />
And dig myself a hole where I can hide.<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
I heared how you was kickin' up some capers,<br />
When I was off in Kansas City, Mo.<br />
I heard some things you couldn't print in papers,<br />
From fellers who been talkin' like they know!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
Foot!<br />
I only did the kind of things I orta, sorta,<br />
To you I was as faithful as c'n be fer me.<br />
Them stories 'bout the way I lost my bloomers - Rumors!<br />
A lot of tempest in a pot o' tea!<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
The whole thing don't sound very good to me.<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
Well, y' see.<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
I go and sow my last wild oat!<br />
I cut out all shenanigans.<br />
I save my money, don't gamble or drink,<br />
In the back room down at Flannigans!<br />
I give up lotsa other things,<br />
A gentleman never mentions,<br />
But before I give up anymore,<br />
I wanta know your intentions!<br />
<br />
With me it's all er nuthin'.<br />
Is it all er nuthin' with you?<br />
It cain't be "in between"<br />
It cain't be "now and then"<br />
No half and half romance will do!<br />
<br />
I'm a one woman man, Home lovin' type,<br />
All complete with slippers and pipe.<br />
Take me like I am, er leave me be!<br />
If you cain't give me all, give me nuthin'<br />
And nuthin's whut you'll git from me!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
Not even sump'n?<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
Nuthin's whut you'll git from me!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
It cain't be "in between"<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
Hmm Hmm!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
It cain't be "now and then"<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
No half and half romance will do!<br />
<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
Would you build me a house,<br />
All painted white,<br />
Cute and clean and purty and bright.<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
Big enough fer two but not fer three!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
S'posin' that we should have a third one?<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
He better look a lot like me!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
Yer spited image!<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
He better look a lot like me!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
With you it's all er nuthin'.<br />
All fer you and nuthin' fer me!<br />
But if a wife is wise, she's gotta realize,<br />
That men like you are wild and free.<br />
So I ain't gonna fuss, ain't gonna frown,<br />
Have your fun, go out on the town,<br />
Stay up late and don't come home till three.<br />
And go right off to sleep if you're sleepy,<br />
There's no use waitin' up fer me!<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
Oh, Ah do Annie!<br />
<br />
[Ado Annie]<br />
No use waitin' up fer me!<br />
<br />
[Will]<br />
Come on and kiss me!
