《Wait a Bit Joe》歌词

[00:00:00] Wait a Bit Joe - Noel Coward and Orchestra

[00:00:10] When I was quite a tiny lad

[00:00:12] My nurse rehearsed me in a set routine

[00:00:14] Of good and bad

[00:00:17] When I grew up my parents would

[00:00:19] Unduly emphasize the gulf between

[00:00:21] The bad and good

[00:00:25] Aware that love can be a most destructive force

[00:00:30] I try to steer a middle course

[00:00:37] There's a right way and a wrong way

[00:00:41] There's a weak way and a strong way

[00:00:45] Take it easy

[00:00:47] Drive with caution when the road is greasy

[00:00:49] Wait a bit wait a bit joe

[00:00:53] There's an old way and a new way

[00:00:57] There's a false way and a true way

[00:01:00] Keep your ears back

[00:01:02] And you'll never have to fight the tears back

[00:01:05] Wait a bit wait a bit joe

[00:01:08] Never trust your conscience as a method of defense

[00:01:12] When old adam bubbles up inside

[00:01:16] On mature reflection you will find that common sense

[00:01:20] Is a far more servicible guide

[00:01:24] There's the wrong life and the right life

[00:01:27] There's the home life and the night life

[00:01:31] But which ever direction you go

[00:01:36] Wait a bit wait a bit joe

[00:01:39] There's a right way and a wrong way

[00:01:43] There's a short way and a long way

[00:01:47] Let your hair down

[00:01:49] But before the thrill begins to wear down

[00:01:51] Wait a bit wait a bit joe

[00:01:54] There's a dull way and a smart way

[00:01:58] There's a head way and a heart way

[00:02:02] Love may fret you

[00:02:04] But before you let the goblins get you

[00:02:06] Wait a bit wait a bit joe

[00:02:10] Try to keep your balance and endeavour to create

[00:02:13] A design for living at your ease

[00:02:17] If you're over eager and go snapping at the bait

[00:02:21] You will end by giving at the knees

[00:02:25] There's a last love and a first love

[00:02:28] There's a best love and a worst love

[00:02:32] But if you don't want to lose on the throw

[00:02:37] Wait a bit wait a bit

[00:02:39] Wait a bit wait a bit joe
