Jerome Kern - Nobody Else But Me lyrics

[KIM] I was a shy, demure type, Inhibited, insecure type Of maid. I stayed Within my little shell Till a certain cutie Told me I was swell. Now I'm smug and snooty, Confident as hell. I want to be No one but me. I am in love with a lover Who likes me the way I am. I have my faults-- He likes my faults. I'm not very bright-- He's not very bright. He thinks I'm grand, That's grand for me-- He may be wrong, But if we get along, What do we care, say we? When he holds me close, Close as we can be, I tell the lad that I'm grateful and I'm glad that I'm nobody else but me! [CHORUS] I want to be No one but me. I am in love with a lover Who likes me the way I am. I have my faults, He likes my faults-- I'm not very bright, He's not very bright. [KIM] He thinks I'm grand, That's grand for me. I get a thrill Knowing he gets a thrill When I sit on his knee. Walking on the shore, Swimming in the sea, When I am with him I'm glad that girl who's with him Is nobody else but me! [CHORUS] They are a modern couple, They're sinuous, lithe and supple, And so They know The dance that is up-to-date! [KIM] We can do the Charleston In the lightest way. [CHORUS] Can they do the Charleston? [KIM] Boy, oh boy! Hey hey!
