Life is very rough and tumble,  For a humble deserves  One can betray ones troubles never  Whatever occurs.  Though I never really grumble,  Life's a jumble indeed  And in my efforts to succeed  I've had to formulate a creed.  I believe in doing what I can  In crying when I must  In laughing when I choose  Hey ho, if love were all  I should be lonely.  I believe the more you love a man,  The more you give your trust,  The more you're bound to lose.  Although when shadows fall  I think if only  Somebody splendid really needed me  Someone affectionate and dear  Cares would be ended if I knew that he  Wanted to have me near.  But I believe that since my life began  The most I've had is just a talent to amuse.  Hey ho, if love were all.  Frequently I put a bit by, save for a rainy day  Nobody here can say to what indeed  The years are leading  Though fate often treats me meanly  I serenely persue  A little mirage in the blue  Determination helps me through  But I believe that since my life began  The most I've had is just a talent to amuse.  Hey ho, if love were all.
