The Hard Way - Betty Hutton/Jimmy Dorsey/Edie Bracken/DOROTHY LAMOUR[00:00:00]
I exercised each morning[00:00:23]
Cold creamed my face each night[00:00:26]
Saw my dentist twice a year[00:00:29]
Curbed my appetite[00:00:32]
And so I modestly admit[00:00:35]
It didn't help one single bit[00:00:41]
Some girls can make any man dream[00:00:47]
By flashing an innocent gleam[00:00:50]
Me I do and hiccup curl my upper lip up[00:00:53]
Light a roman candle and scream[00:00:57]
I have to do it the hard way[00:00:58]
Some girls can wear any old rags[00:01:02]
And capture the wolves and the stags[00:01:06]
Me I dress in sables walk across the tables[00:01:09]
Waving three American flags[00:01:12]
I have to do it the hard way[00:01:14]
Let's say there's a dance[00:01:18]
They're playing a waltz[00:01:21]
And I want romance[00:01:25]
That's when I begin turning sommersalts[00:01:28]
Some girls can keep men on their toes[00:01:31]
By smiling and throwing a rose[00:01:34]
Me I wrack my noodle whistle yankee doodle[00:01:38]
Balancing a broom on my nose[00:01:41]
Oh ima telling you why[00:01:42]
I have to do it the hard way[00:01:46]
My freshman year in college[00:01:53]
I remember I was mild[00:01:55]
I wore pretty clothes got an a in geometry[00:01:58]
A normal child[00:02:02]
But nobody wanted to date me[00:02:04]
I'd sit at home and dream[00:02:06]
So in order to get attention[00:02:09]
I had to scream[00:02:12]
The fellas liked girls who wore perfurme[00:02:16]
So I bought forbidden flower[00:02:19]
But I had to mix it with ether[00:02:22]
To get them in my power[00:02:25]
I didn't want to go crazy[00:02:28]
But I ain't kidding jack[00:02:31]
Since that time I'm telling you I'm[00:02:33]
A raving ranting impetuous panning violent maniac[00:02:35]
The girls who read books and wear specs[00:02:41]
Get fellas with great intellects[00:02:44]
Me I get fanatics[00:02:47]
Guys who live in attics[00:02:49]
Yes I even pick up the checks[00:02:51]
I have to do it the hard way[00:02:52]
Suppose there's a park[00:02:56]
A boy on a bench[00:02:59]
I'm out for a lark[00:03:02]
So I make him fall with a monkey wrench[00:03:05]
When someone like hedy lamarr[00:03:09]
Steps into the swankiest bar[00:03:12]
All the fellas get up[00:03:15]
Light her cigarette up[00:03:17]
Me I'd have to smoke a cigar[00:03:18]
And then they call me a car[00:03:20]
Doin' everything the hard way[00:03:24]
