Bill Lyrics

Bill - Helen Morgan

 

Written by:Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein II

 

I used to dream that I'd discover

 

The perfect lover

 

Someday

 

I knew I'd recognize him

If ever

He came around my way

 

I always used to fancy then

 

He'd be one of those god like

Kind of men

 

With a giant brain

 

And a noble head

 

Like the heroes bold

 

In the books I read

 

But along came Bill

 

Who's not the type at all

 

You'ld meet him on the street

And never notice him

 

His form and face

 

His manly grace

 

Are not the kind that you would find in a statue

 

And I can't explain

 

It's surely not his brain

 

That makes me thrill

 

I love him

 

Because he's

 

Wonderful

 

Because he's just

 

My Bill

 

He can't play golf or tennis or polo

 

Or sing a solo

 

Or row

 

He isn't half as handsome

 

As dozens of men that

 

I know

 

He isn't tall or straight or slim

 

And he dresses far worse

 

Than Ted or Jim

 

And I can't explain

 

Why he should be

 

Just the one one man

 

In the world for me

 

He's just my Bill

 

An ordinary man

 

He hasn't got a thing

That I can brag about

 

And yet to be

 

Upon his knee

 

So comfy and roomy

 

Seems natural to me

 

Oh I can't explain

 

It's surely not his brain

 

That makes me thrill

 

I love him

 

Because he's

 

I don't know

 

Because he's just

 

 

My Bill
