A man's got a heart

hasn't he?

Joking apart

hasn't he?

And though I'd be

the first one to say

that I wasn't a saint

I'm finding it hard

to be really as black

as they paint

I'm reviewing

the situation

Can a fella be

a villain all his life?

all the trials!

and tribulation!

Better settle down

and get myself a wife!

And a wife would cook

and sew for me

and come for me

and go for me

And go for me

and nag at me

the finger

she would wag at me

The money she would

take from me

a misery

she'd make from me

I think I'd better

think it out again!

A wife you can keep

anyway

I'd rather sleep, anyway

Left without anyone

in the world

and I'm starting

from now

So "how to win friends

and to influence people"

So how?

I'm reviewing

the situation

I must quickly look up

everyone I know

Titled people

with a station

Who can help me

make a real

impressive show

I will own a suite

at Claridges

and run a fleet of

carriages

And wave at all

the duchesses

With friendliness

as much as is

befitting of my new estate

"Good morrow to you

magistrate!"

he he he he he he

I think I'd better

think it out again!

What happens when I'm

seventy?

Must come a time

seventy

When you're old

and it's cold

and who cares if

you live or you die?

Your one consolation's

the money you may

have put by

I'm reviewing

the situation

I'm a bad 'un and a bad 'un

I shall stay!

you'll be seeing

no transformation

But it's wrong to be

a rogue in every way

I don't want nobody

hurt for me

or made to do

the dirt for me

This rotten life

is not for me

it's getting far

too hot for me

There is no in

between for me

but who will change

the scene for me?

Don't want no-one

to rob for me

but who will find

a job for me?

I think I'd better

think it out again!

Hey!
