Various Artists - Don't Put a Tax on the Beautiful Girls lyrics

Taxes here and there Taxes everywhere Taxes every place that they could be Though I'm getting by Still I can't deny There's a tax I know would ruin me I wrote my congressman a note I said if you want my vote Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls How could I live without love You could tax my business and all that I own But have a little pity Leave my pleasure alone What'll I do on a beautiful night If I should happen to fall Suppose I'm about to kiss a beautiful maid And she discovers that my tax isn't paid Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls Or I won't have any lovin' at all Every cent I make Tax collectors take They don't leave me with a single dime Though I'll get along Without wine or a song There's a tax I know would just be wrong It's not a luxury for me It's a great necessity Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls How could I live without love You can tax my soda, I'll pay it somehow But don't you think the price of sugar's High enough now What'll I do on a beautiful night If I should happen to fall Suppose I run into the handsomest lady The tax collector comes He says I know you haven't paid me Don't put a tax on the beautiful girls Or I won't have any lovin' at all
