Irving Berlin - It'll Come To You lyrics

[Verse:] When life catches up with the flaming youth Someone tries to tell them the awful truth I would send them ignorant on their way To those little innocents I would say [1st refrain:] Don't worry so about the things that you don't know When the time comes and you find yourself in love It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you Don't be concerned about the things you haven't learned If you can't express just what you're thinking of It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you No one teaches a duck how to swim or a bird how to fly They're not taught to do what they ought to do Why should you and I? Don't be afraid because you're such a bashful maid When you're strolling 'neath the silv'ry moon You may be shy but pretty soon It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you [2nd refrain:] Don't start to plan to rebuff a fresh young man When you're in a cab and he starts making free It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you Don't lie awake and think of answers you might make When he starts to put his hand upon your knee It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you No one teaches a mule how to kick or a dog how to bite They know what to do and what not to do When they're out at night Don't be undone because the first round has been won He begins to think that you're a dunce It seems you're lost, then all at once It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
