Most Gentlemen Don’t Like Love Songtext
von Mary Martin

most gentelmen don′t like love,
they just like to kick it around,
most gentelmen can't take love,
′cause most gentlemen can't be profound.
as ma'dam sappho in some sonnet said,
a slap and a tickle
are all that the fickle
male
ever has in his head
for most gentelmen don′t like love,
i′ve been in love,
so i know what i'm talking of
and, oh, to my woe i have found
they just like to kick it around
most gentelmen don′t like love,
they just like to kick it around,
most gentelmen can't take love,
′cause most gentlemen can't be profound so just remember when you get that glance
a romp and a quickie
are all that little dickie
means
when he mentions romance,
for most gentlemen don′t like love,
they just like to kick it around.
most gentelmen don't like love,
they just like to kick it around,
most gentelmen can't take love,
′cause most gentlemen can′t be profound
in ev'ry land, children, they′re all the same,
a pounce in the clover
and then when it's over
"so long and what is your name?"
′cause most gentlemen don't like love,
they just like to kick it around.
