Cole Porter - Tom, Dick, or Harry lyrics

(Spoken intro) [BAPTISTA] Gentlemen, importune me no farther For how firmly I am resolved you know; That is, not bestow my youngest daughter Before I have a husband for the elder [BIANCA] Ah, me! (Verse) [GREMIO] I've made a haul in all the leading rackets From which Rip-roaring rich I happen to be And if thou wouldst attain the upper brackets Marry me, marry me, marry me [LUCENTIO] My purse has yet to know a silver lining Still lifeless Is my wifeless Family tree But if for love unending thou art pining Marry me, marry me, marry me [HORTENSIO] I come to thee a thoroughbred patrician Still spraying My decaying Family tree To give a social goose to thy position Marry me, marry me, marry me Marry me [GREMIO AND LUCENTIO] Marry me [HORTENSIO] Marry me [GREMIO AND HORTENSIO] Marry me [LUCENTIO] Marry me [GREMIO] Marry me [GREMIO, HORTENSIO, AND LUCENTIO] Marry me! (Chorus) [BIANCA] I'm a maid who would marry And will take with no qualm Any Tom, Dick, or Harry Any Harry, Dick, or Tom I'm a maid mad to marry And will take double-quick Any Tom, Dick, or Harry Any Tom, Harry, or Dick [GREMIO] I'm the man thou shouldst marry [BIANCA] Howdy, Pop! [GREMIO] Howdy, Mom! [LUCENTIO] I'm the man thou shouldst marry [BIANCA] Art thou Harry, Dick, or Tom? [HORTENSIO] I'm the man thou shouldst marry [BIANCA] Howdy, pal! [HORTENSIO] Howdy, chick! [BIANCA] Art thou Tom, Dick, or Harry? [GREMIO, HORTENSIO, AND LUCENTIO] Call me Tom, Harry, or Dick [ALL] I'm/She's a maid who would marry And would no longer tarry I'm/She's a maid who would marry May my/her hopes not miscarry I'm/She's a maid mad to marry And will take double-quick Any Tom, Dick, or Harry Any Tom, Harry, or Dick A dicka dick A dicka dick A dicka dick A dicka dick A dicka dick A dicka dick A dicka dick
