Young and Healthy Songtext
von Dick Powell

Billy Lawlor:
I know a bundle of humanity,
She′s about so high;
I'm nearly driven to insanity,
When she passes by.
She′s a sunny little honey,
But oh so hard to kiss;
I'll try to overcome her vanity,
And then I'll tell her this:
I′m young and healthy,
And you′ve got charms; It would really be a sin
Not to have you in my arms.
I'm young and healthy,
And so are you;
When the moon is in the sky
Tell me what am I to do?
If I could hate "yuh,"
I′d keep away;
That ain't my nature,
I′m full of vitamin "A," say!


Say kid! Now you go to it!
Peggy Sawyer:
To what!?!
Billy Lawlor:
Your first notes on Broadway!
Peggy Sawyer:
I'm young and healthy,
And you′ve got charms;
It would really be a sin
Not to have you in my arms.
I'm young and healthy,
And so are you;
When the moon is in the sky
Tell me what am I to do?
If I could hate "yuh,"
I'd keep away;
That ain′t my nature,
I′m full of vitamin "A," say!
I'm young and healthy,
So let′s be bold;
In a year or two or three,
Maybe we will be
Too old.
