I'D RATHER BE BLUE OVER YOU
FANNY BRICE
I'd rather be blue thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
I'm crazy about'cha, without'cha
For you I'm strong.
I can't do without'cha
Howcha magoucha?
Don't stay too long.
I need a little ah, little ooh, little oh,
And I'm knocking on wood.
Ah, honey hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
It's so hard to be good

I'd rather be blue thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
Will I be good? Will I be bad?
Don't be a fool, you fool.
My little flat, I'm turning that
Into a Sunday school
While you're away, I'm here to say
There'll be no iceman there.
Singin' the blues I'm gonna use
Nothin' but Frigidaire.
I'd rather be blue thinking of you
I'd rather be blue over you
Than be happy with somebody else
Blue over you, I'd rather be blue over you
Than be hap-hap-hap-happy
With somebody else.

PEOPLE

FANNY BRICE
We travel single all
Maybe we're lucky but I don't know
With them just let one kid fall down
And seven mothers faint
I guess we're both happy, but maybe we ain't

People, people who need people,
Are the luckiest people in the world
We're children, needing other children
And yet letting a grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside
Acting more like children than children
Lovers are very special people
They're the luckiest people in the world
With one person one very special person
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half now you're whole
No more hunger or thirst
But first be a person who needs people
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world...
Hum...mmm...
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you were half now you're whole
No more hunger or thirst
But first be a person who needs people
People who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world...
