Showstoppers
once my clothes where shabbie
tailors called me cabbie
so I took a vow
said this bummo bee bo borammo
now I'm smooth and snappy
now my tailors happy
I'm the cats meow
my wordrobe is a wow
Paris silk,Haris tweed
there's only one thing I need
got my tweed press
got my best vest
all I need now is the girl
got my striped tie
got my hopes high
got the time and the place
and I got rhythm
now all I need is the girl to go with 'em
if she'll just apear
we'll take this big town for a whirl
and if she'll say
my darlin I'm yours I'll through away
my stiped tie and my best dress tweed
all I really need is the girl
(talk) I start easy you see
now I'm more deberner

how can she resist
and if she'll say
my darlin I'm yours I'll through away
my striped tie and my best dress tweed
all I really need
is the girl
