You Couldn't Be Cuter 1938 'Joy Of Living'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 08 May 2003

Your poise! Your pose!
That cute fantastic nose!
You're mighty like a knockout,
you're mighty like a rose!
I'm sold, I'm hooked!
The well known goose is cooked!
You got me little fella,
I'm sunk! I'm gone! I'm hooked!

You couldn't be cuter
plus that you couldn't be smarter
plus that intelligent face
you have a disgraceful charm for me.
You couldn't be keener,
you look so fresh from the cleaner,
you are the little grand slam
I'll bring to my family.
My Ma will show you an album of me
that'll bore you to tears!
And you'll attract all the relatives
we have dodged for years and years.
And what'll they tell me?
Exactly, what'll they tell me?
They'll say you couldn't be nicer,
couldn't be sweeter, couldn't be better,
couldn't be smoother,
couldn't be cuter baby than you are!

You couldn't be cuter
plus that you couldn't be smarter
plus that intelligent face
you have a disgraceful charm for me.
You couldn't be keener,
you look so fresh from the cleaner,
you are the little grand slam
I'll bring to my family.
My Ma will show you an album of me
that'll bore you to tears!
And you'll attract all the relatives
we have dodged for years and years.
And what'll they tell me?
Exactly, what'll they tell me?
They'll say you couldn't be nicer,
couldn't be sweeter, couldn't be better,
couldn't be smoother,
couldn't be cuter baby than you are!
