《The Sadder-but-Wiser Girl》歌词

[00:00:00] The Sadder-but-Wiser Girl - Robert Preston/Peter Kelton

[00:00:02] Innocent Sunday school teacher for me

[00:00:04] That kinda girl spins webs no spider ever

[00:00:07] Now listen boy a girl who trades on all that purity

[00:00:10] Merely wants to trade

[00:00:11] My independence for her security

[00:00:13] The only affirmative

[00:00:15] She will file refers to marching down the aisle

[00:00:18] No golden glorious

[00:00:19] Gleaming pristine goddess no sir

[00:00:23] For no Diana do I play faun

[00:00:25] I can tell you that right now

[00:00:27] I snarl I hiss

[00:00:29] How can ignorance be compared to bliss

[00:00:32] I spark I fizz for the lady

[00:00:35] Who knows what time it is

[00:00:36] I cheer I rave for the virtue I'm too late to save

[00:00:41] The sadder but wiser girl for me

[00:00:47] No bright-eyed blushing

[00:00:49] Breathless baby-doll baby no sir

[00:00:51] That kinda child ties knots no sailor ever knew

[00:00:56] I prefer to take a chance on a more adult romance

[00:01:00] No dewy young miss who keeps resisting

[00:01:03] All the time she keeps insisting

[00:01:05] No wide-eyed wholesome

[00:01:07] Innocent female no sir

[00:01:09] Why she's the fisherman

[00:01:10] I'm the fish you see Plop

[00:01:13] I flinch I shy when the lass

[00:01:16] With the delicate air goes by

[00:01:18] I smile I grin when the gal

[00:01:21] With a touch of sin walks in

[00:01:22] I hope

[00:01:23] And I pray for Hester to win just one more A

[00:01:27] The sadder but wiser girl's the girl for me

[00:01:31] The sadder but wiser girl for me
