Nat King Cole - If You Can't Smile And Say Yes текст песни

(louis jordan, timmie rodgers)

Knock me a kiss, you'll never miss
When i'm ready to go
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!

Squeeze me a squoze in these fine clothes,
Mmmmi love you so
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!

When i ask for a date, the answer is no
You don't know what you're saying
Don't you know the war's on,

Everything is rationed,
How 'bout that jive, keep me alive?

Baby, let bygones be bygones,
'cause men are scarce as nylons
And if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!

~interlude~

Baby, let bygones be bygones,
'cause men are scarce as nylons
And if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no, no, no, baby
Please don't cry and say no
