Nice Work If You Can Get It

Fred Astaire

Holdin' hands at midnight

'neath a starry sky

Nice work if you can get it

And you can get it if you try



Strollin' with the one girl

Sighin' sigh after sigh

Nice work if you can get it

And you can get it if you try



Just imagine someone

Waiting at the cottage door

Where two hearts become one

Who could ask for anything more?



Loving one who loves you

And then takin' that vow

Nice work if you can get it

And if you get it, won't you tell me how?







Holdin' hands at midnight

'neath a starry sky





And strollin' with the one girl

Sighing sigh after sigh





Just imagine someone

Waiting at the cottage door

Where two hearts become one

Who could ask for anything more?



Loving one who loves you

And then takin' that vow

Nice work if you can get it

And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
