Roberta - Let's Begin Lyrics

1933 Broadway
Roberta the Musical - Let's Begin Lyrics

The song is written by Jerome Kern and Otto Harbach.

Before I met you no one attracted me
No love thoughts worried or distracted me
My disposition kept exempting me
Until you started in preempting me
And all this while you’ve really been tempting me
Maybe you can tell me what we ought to do

Burthen
Now that you’ve got me goin’ whatcha gonna do?
Is it up to me? Is it up to you?
What kinda game is this we’ve begun?
Was it done just for fun?
We have necked till I’m wrecked
Won’t you tell me what you expect
Is this to be a case of kiss and never tell?
Folly and farewell? Heav’n or maybe Hell?
Which is it goin’ to be, Love or gin?
Wife or sin? Lets begin

Burthen
Now that you’ve got me goin’ whatcha gonna do?
Is it up to me? Is it up to you?
What kinda game is this we’ve begun?
Was it done just for fun?
We have necked till I’m wrecked
Won’t you tell me what you expect
Is this to be a case of kiss and never tell?
Folly and farewell? Heav’n or maybe Hell?
Which is it goin’ to be
Love or gin? Wife or sin?
Lets begin and make a mess
Of both of our bright young lives

Roberta the Musical Lyrics

Let's Begin
Yesterdays
The Touch of Your Hand
I'll Be Hard to Handle
I Won't Dance
Smoke Gets In Your Eyes
Just the Way You Look Tonight
Love To Look At
