Don't Put a Tax On the Beautiful Girls
Taxes here and there, taxes everywhere
But the words that are yet to come, they say
Though I never mixed into politics
I wrote to my congressman today, this is just exactly what I wrote
If you want the woman's vote, don't put a tax on the beautiful girls
For how can they live without love?
You can tax their business and all that they own
But have a little pity, leave my pleasures alone
What'll I do on some beautiful night, if some nice young fella should call?
Suppose it cost a dime to kiss a girl on a cheek
How's the fellow gonna live on fifty a week?
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls or we won't get no loving at all
Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls, for how can they live without love?
You can tax my soda, I'll pay it somehow
But don't you think the price
Of chicken's high enough now?
What'll I do on a beautiful night, if some nice young fella should call?
If they should ever put a tax on beautiful vamps
I'll be one wild woman that'll be cover with stamps
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls or we won't get no loving at all
Why it's alright for the old maids who are too old to tempt
But every woman over forty should be exempt
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls
Or we won't get no loving at all
But the words that are yet to come, they say
Though I never mixed into politics
I wrote to my congressman today, this is just exactly what I wrote
If you want the woman's vote, don't put a tax on the beautiful girls
For how can they live without love?
You can tax their business and all that they own
But have a little pity, leave my pleasures alone
What'll I do on some beautiful night, if some nice young fella should call?
Suppose it cost a dime to kiss a girl on a cheek
How's the fellow gonna live on fifty a week?
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls or we won't get no loving at all
Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls, for how can they live without love?
You can tax my soda, I'll pay it somehow
But don't you think the price
Of chicken's high enough now?
What'll I do on a beautiful night, if some nice young fella should call?
If they should ever put a tax on beautiful vamps
I'll be one wild woman that'll be cover with stamps
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls or we won't get no loving at all
Why it's alright for the old maids who are too old to tempt
But every woman over forty should be exempt
So don't put a tax on the beautiful girls
Or we won't get no loving at all
