Gold Diggers of 1937 Page #10

Here. Take this thing away.

After the show,

we're going out to a nightclub.

Life begins at 59.

Don't forget that, Gen.

That's the curtain.

The soldiers of the world

Can conquer you

With powder and with steel

The women of the world

Can do the same

With charm and sex appeal

A soldier must be patriotic

A woman's got to be exotic

A kiss is deadly

As the cannon's roar

In fact I fear it more than warfare

The battlefield's a rocking chair

Look out, look out

For all is fair in love and war

Just like a bombshell from the air

A kiss can blow you up

Beware of love and war

Two arms can squeeze you senseless

You're defenseless in the dark

Two eyes

Two brown or blue eyes

If they do invite you

They'll dynamite you

And with your back against the wall

She marches you to City Hall

And leads you through the door

And then the deed is done

Her victory is won

For love is just like war

The battlefield's a rocking chair

Look out, look out

For all is fair in love and war

Just like a bombshell from the air

A kiss can blow you up

Beware of love and war

Two arms can squeeze you senseless

You're defenseless in the dark

Two eyes

Two brown or blue eyes

If they do invite you

They'll dynamite you

And with your back against the wall

She marches you to City Hall

And leads you through the door

And then the deed is done

Her victory is won

For love is just like war

If I could snare some millionaire

I'd have a lovely love affair

For he's the kind of man I could adore

Oh, yes, yes.

I wouldn't care if he's a wreck

As long as he could sign a check

And keep the wolf away

From my front door

I'd be willing to take my chances

If his finances were okay

I'd make him pay

Or am I too brutal? Maybe.

I'd encourage his bold advances

If he got reckless, I'd get a necklace

Diamonds and things.

A nice old man with lots of wealth

Who isn't in the best of health

Who could ask for more?

See what I mean?

A sudden love attack,

And I'd have all his jack

For love is just like war

The battlefield's a rocking chair

Look out, look out,

For all is fair in love and war

A smile may be the camouflage

That comes before the big barrage

In love and war

Drilling can be so thrilling

If you're willing to obey

Round you, her arms surround you

Though you may maneuver

You'll never move her

If you escape a rocking chair

Then you deserve a Croix de Guerre

Or two or three or four

And after you've been kissed

I know that you'll enlist

For love is just like war

And with your back against the wall

She marches you to City Hall

And leads you through the door

And then the deed is done

Her victory is won

For love is just like war
