It's The Girl 1931

Some folks need atmosphere
when they're making love,
they say old Mother Nature
makes love grand.
I've got my own idea
pertaining to love,
if you're a Romeo
you'll understand.

It isn't the paddle
it's not the canoe
it isn't the river
or skies that are blue
it isn't the love dreams
that bring joy to you,
it's the girl,
it's the girl!
It isn't the brooklet
that you wander to,
it isn't the mountains
the flowers or dew,
it isn't the love nest
that brings love to you,
It's the girl,
it's the girl!
Even though at times
you often doubt them,
what a lonely world
'twould be without them!
It isn't the song birds
the songs that they sing
it isn't the sunshine
that makes you like Spring,
so what is this magic
that makes love the thing?
It's the girl,
it's the girl!

It isn't the paddle
it's not the canoe
it isn't the river
or skies that are blue
it isn't the love dreams
that bring joy to you,
it's the girl,
it's the girl!
It isn't the brooklet
that you wander to,
it isn't the mountains
the flowers or dew,
it isn't the love nest
that brings love to you,
It's the girl,
it's the girl!
Even though at times
you often doubt them,
what a lonely world
'twould be without them!
It isn't the song birds
the songs that they sing
it isn't the sunshine
that makes you like Spring,
so what is this magic
that makes love the thing?
It's the girl,
it's the girl!

There's lots of country lanes
with lovers galore,
a country lane is always lovers' ground;
still lovers will complain
that they need the shore
but that is not the case with me I've found.

It isn't the paddle
it's not the canoe
it isn't the river
or skies that are blue
it isn't the love dreams
that bring joy to you,
it's the girl,
it's the girl!
It isn't the brooklet
that you wander to,
it isn't the mountains
the flowers or dew,
it isn't the love nest
that brings love to you,
It's the girl,
it's the girl!
Even though at times
you often doubt them,
what a lonely world
'twould be without them!
It isn't the song birds
the songs that they sing
it isn't the sunshine
that makes you like Spring,
so what is this magic
that makes love the thing?
It's the girl,
it's the girl!

It isn't the paddle
it's not the canoe
it isn't the river
or skies that are blue
it isn't the love dreams
that bring joy to you,
it's the girl,
it's the girl!
It isn't the brooklet
that you wander to,
it isn't the mountains
the flowers or dew,
it isn't the love nest
that brings love to you,
It's the girl,
it's the girl!
Even though at times
you often doubt them,
what a lonely world
'twould be without them!
It isn't the song birds
the songs that they sing
it isn't the sunshine
that makes you like Spring,
so what is this magic
that makes love the thing?
It's the girl,
it's the girl!
