Always True to You in My Fashion
Why can't you behave?
Why can't you behave?
How in hell can you be jealous
When you know, baby, I'm your slave?
I'm just mad for you
And I'll always be
But naturally
If a custom-tailored vet
Asks me out for something wet
When the vet begins to pet, I cry "hooray!"
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
I enjoy a tender pass
By the boss of Boston, Mass
Though his pass is middle-class and not Backa Bay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way
There's a madman known as Mack
Who is planning to attack
If his mad attack means a Cadillac, okay!
But I'm always true to to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way
I've been asked to have a meal
By a big tycoon in steel
If the meal includes a deal, accept I may
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, Darlin' in my way
I could never curl my lip
To a dazzlin' diamond clip
Though the clip meant "Let 'er rip", I'd not say "Nay!"
But I'm always true to to you, darlin, in my fashion
C-ba-da-da-ba-da-dow, darlin' in my way
There's an oil man known as "Tex"
Who is keen to give me checks
And his checks, I fear, mean that sex is here to stay!
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin' in my way!
There's a wealthy Hindu priest
Who's a wolf to say the least
When the priest goes too far east
I also stray
But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darling, in my way
There's a lush from Portland, OR
Who's rich but such a boar
When the boar falls on the floor
I let him lay
But I'm always true to you, darling, in my (snore)
Yes, I'm always true to you darling in my way
Mr. Gabel — I mean Clark
Wants me on his boat to park
If the Gabel boat means a stable coat
Anchors away!
But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion
Oh, hello!
Yes, I'm always true to you
Darling in my way!
Why can't you behave?
