Dinah Shore - The Gentleman Is A Dope lyrics

The boss gets on my nerves; I've got a good mind to quit I've taken all I can; It's time to get up and git And move to another job Or maybe another town The gentleman burns me up The gentleman gets me down The gentleman is a dope A man of many faults A clumsy Joe Who wouldn't know A rhumba from a waltz The gentleman is a dope And not my cup of tea (Why do I get in a dither? He doesn't belong to me.) The gentleman isn't bright He doesn't know the score; A cake will come He'll take a crumb And never ask for more The gentleman's eyes are blue But little do they see (Why am I beating my brains out? He doesn't belong to me.) He's somebody else's problem; She's welcome to the guy! She'll never understand him Half as well as I The gentleman is a dope He isn't very smart He's just a lug You'd like to hug And hold against your heart The gentleman doesn't know How happy he could be (Look at me, crying my eyes out As if he belonged to me . . He'll never belong to me.)
