Let's Be Buddies Lyrics
Let's Be Buddies - Ethel Merman/Joan Carroll
I get awful gloomy
You mean very gloomy
Very gloomy now and then in this town
'Cause it's always so hard
To find a real pard
Who'll play in your yard
When you're down
But since the talk you and me
I mean you and I have had
I've got a good friend I see
Well I'm not so very bad
What say let's be buddies
What say let's be pals
What say let's be buddies
And keep up each other's morales
I may never shout it
But many's the time I'm blue
What say how's about it
Can't I be a buddy to you
Yes with certain reservations
Will you try your best to go for this moll
Hattie what are you talking about
If you do I'll buy a new dress for your doll
But please let me pick it out
And I'll take you to hear the big cathedral bells
Oh I hate those noisy old chimes
Well instead then we'll go to see Gone With The Wind
But I've already seen it four times
Would you like a big box of chocolate creams
No for candy I never did care
Then will you let me get you a cute little dog
Would you mind making it a bear
Say Jerry old kid you're a tough proposition
Are you sure your lid is in a healthy condition
Are you feelin' good Jerry
What me Why very
Well whether you are or not
I may never shout it
But many's the time I'm blue
What say how's about it
Can't I be a buddy to you
