VERSE
The man who only lives for making money
Lives a life that isn't necessarily sunny.
Likewise the man who works for fame
There's no guarantee that time won't erase his name.
The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment
Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant.
Fall in love and you won't regret it,
That's the best work of all, if you can get it.
CHORUS
Holding hands at midnight
'Neath a starry sky,
Nice work if you can get it,
And you can get it if you try.
Strolling with the one girl
Sighing sigh after sigh,
Nice work if you can get it,
And you can get it if you try.
Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door,
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
Loving one who loves you
And then taking that vow,
It's nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, wont you tell me how?
The man who only lives for making money
Lives a life that isn't necessarily sunny.
Likewise the man who works for fame
There's no guarantee that time won't erase his name.
The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment
Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant.
Fall in love and you won't regret it,
That's the best work of all, if you can get it.
CHORUS
Holding hands at midnight
'Neath a starry sky,

And you can get it if you try.

Sighing sigh after sigh,
Nice work if you can get it,
And you can get it if you try.
Just imagine someone
