HUNDREDS OF GIRLS

 

Music and Lyric by

Jerry Herman

 

With Drive

 

What gives a man ginger and snap?  Going through life with his little old lapful of hundreds and hundreds of girls.  What gives a man power and punch?  Tina for breakfast and Lena for lunch, Having hundreds and hundreds of girls.  Show him a blonde and something in his soul will leap to respond but then again he’s also so terribly fond of this brunette and so instead of one dandy dish pass him the candy dish!  I’ll sprinkle spice into his life to make him forget that he’s stuck with his wife

 

Give ‘em hundreds and hundreds of girls!

 

One on the line, two on the hook, Going through life with his little black book full of hundreds and hundreds of girls.  What makes a bum feel like a king?  Meg in the winter and Peg in the spring,

 

Having hundreds and hundreds of girls.

 

Analysts find this thing called modern man was never designed with only one eternal partner in mind and so I gotta yell to hell with propriety, Viva variety! Sinner or saint school girl or queen, one girl is boring and two are obscene

 

Give ‘em hundreds and hundreds of girls!
