Why Can’t I? Rodgers & Hart

(Verse)

[BETTY]

Darling, don't leave me

I'm so lonesome tonight

Nothing is right

With me

[MARY JANE]

You can't deceive me

What you need is romance

Something in pants

Said she

[BETTY]

You're so clever

But I never

Thought you ever

Knew

[MARY JANE]

My maiden's prayer

Leaves me weak as a cat

For I am that

Way too

(Chorus 1)

[BETTY]

Feeling the way I do

I'd like to say, "I do!"

Heaving a heavenly sigh

Everybody has someone

Why can't I?
