Guys and Dolls Songtext
von The Andrews Sisters

When you see a guy reach for stars in the sky
You can bet that he′s doing it for some doll.
When you spot a John waiting out in the rain
Chances are he's insane as only a John can be for a Jane.
When you meet a gent paying all kinds of rent
For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal.
Call it sad, call it funny.
But it′s better than even money
That the guy's only doing it for some doll. On the other hand, when you see a dame
Change the shape of her frame.
You can bet she's reducing it for some guy
When you see a dame with a dimond in huck.
Oh rest asure that that rock
Has gone to restock, some gentlman jock
When you see a mouse
Hurry out of the house
And she runs twenty blocks for cigars and rum

Call it dumb, call it clever


Ah, but you can get odds forever
That the doll′s only doing it for some guy
(Interlude)
When you see a gent, paying all sorts of rent,
For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal.
Call it sad, call it funny.
But it′s better than even money
That the guy's only married to
He guys only married to,
An expensive doll!
