Hey Look Me Over (From the Musical Production "Wildcat") Songtext
von Johnny Mathis with Nelson Riddle and His Orchestra

Hey look me over
Lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover
Mortgage up to here
But don′t pass the plate folks
Don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you′re down and out
The only way is up
And I'll be up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don't thumb your nose
But take a tip from mine
I′m a little bit short of the elbow room
But let me get me some
And look out world
Here I come


Yes, hey look me over
Lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover
Mortgage up to here
But don′t pass the plate folks
Don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you′re down and out
The only way is up
And I'll be up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don′t thumb your nose
But take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room
But let me get me some
And look out, world
Here, I, come...
