1955 Broadway
Silk Stockings the Musical - Josephine Lyrics


The song is written by Cole Porter.

JANICE:
Jo-o-o-o-osephine,
Commonly called Jo,

SINGERS:
Josephine

JANICE:
Was a throbbin' robin, poor but chic,
Born in ultry-sultry Martinique,
Yet she rose to reach the highest peak,

SINGERS:
And why so?
'Cause she had

JANICE:
Agitating eyes,
Titillating thighs,
Lubricating lips,
Undulating hips,
A figure simply swell,
Plus other good points as well.

ALL:
Man, she was real cool and low!

JANICE:
Jo-o-o-o-osephine
Commonly called Jo,

SINGERS:
Josephine

JANICE:
Tripped away one day to Paris, France,
In her ye olde Creole fancy pants,
Where she rocked Napoleon at a dance

SINGERS:
And why so?
'Cause she had

JANICE:
Agitating eyes,

SINGERS:
What eyes,

JANICE:
Titillating thighs,

SINGERS:
What thighs,

JANICE:
Lubricating lips,

SINGERS:
What lips,

JANICE:
Undulating hips,

SINGERS:
What hips,

JANICE:
A figure simply swell
Plus other good points as well.

SINGERS:
Man, she was real cool and low!

JANICE:
Why did the great Napoleon fall
For her hot gavotte?
What did the doll have on the ball
Other dolls had not?
Why did the mighty man succumb
To this curvy wench?
Why did he make this little bum

SINGERS:
Empress of the French?
'Cause she had

JANICE:
Agitating eyes,

SINGERS:
Agitating eyes,

JANICE:
Titillating thighs,

SINGERS:
Titillating thighs,

JANICE:
Lubricating lips,

SINGERS:
Lubricating lips,

JANICE:
Undulating hips,

SINGERS:
Undulating hips,

JANICE:
A figure simply swell,

SINGERS:
A figure simply swell,

JANICE:
Plus other good points as well.

SINGERS:
Man, she was real cool and low!

SINGERS:
Why did the great Napoleon fall
For her hot gavotte,
What did the doll have on the ball
Other dolls had not?
Why did the mighty man succumb,
To this curvy wench,
Why did he make this little bum,
Empress of the French?
'Cause she had

JANICE:
Agitating eyes,

SINGERS:
Agitating eyes,

JANICE:
Titillating thighs,

SINGERS:
Titillating thighs,

JANICE:
Undulating hips,

SINGERS:
Undulating hips,

JANICE:
A figure simply swell,

SINGERS:
Figure simply swell,

JANICE:
Plus other good points as well.

ALL:
Man, she was real cool, yes,
Real cool, yes, real cool,
Real cool, and low!
