Nice Work If You Can Get It Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

The man who only lives for making money
Lives a life that isnt necessarily sunny
Likewise the man who works for fame
Theres no guarantee that time wont erase his name

The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment
Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant
Fall in love and you wont regret it
Thats the best work of all, if you can get it

Holding hands at midnight
neath a starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try

Strolling with the one girl
Sighing sigh after sigh

Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try


Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?

Loving one who loves you
And then taking that vow

Its nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, wont you tell me how? "

Just imagine someone

Waiting at the cottage door

Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?

Loving one who loves you
And then taking that vow

Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, wont you tell me how? "
