Jack Yellen - If Your Kisses Can't Hold The Man You Love lyrics

Every time that I hear a woman cry ''cause her man has left her flat I just feel like saying, "don't be such a fool, you fool." Better dry your eyes, can't you realize You gain nothing by that Well, that's no way to keep his heart warm, baby When his love grows cool What's the use in sighing? What's the use in crying If he's wandered off the track? ''cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back, no Might as well be cheerful There's no use being tearful If he's given you the sack ''cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back Now, listen If sweet sugar kissin' isn't gonna make him come home Tell me, how do ya hope to keep him to ya With tears instead of song Just be a normal fella Come on, say "What the hell-a" Get his clothes and help him to pack ''cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back Love is like home cooking: good, and wholesome But all men need some mutton on the outside now and then If you find your boy is cheating Do the same, old dear He's only giving you the chance that you've been waiting for for years My goodness! Tears won't get you anything Just a shiny red nose Go on, paint up, powder up, put on your swellest clothes Men: go and get 'em by the score Neglected girls shouldn't worry That's what God made sailors for! Don't cry for him or chase him Just go out and replace him With some good looking Tom, dick or Jack ''cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love Then your tears won't bring him back If your kisses won't hold The man you love Then your tears won't bring him back!
