1958 Broadway Flower Drum Song the Musical - I Enjoy Being a Girl Lyrics
The song was written by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II.
LINDA: I'm a girl, and by me that's only great! I am proud that my silhouette is curvy, That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.
I adore being dressed in something frilly When my date comes to get me at my place. Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy, Like a filly who is ready for the race!
When I have a brand new hairdo With my eyelashes all in curl, I float as the clouds on air do, I enjoy being a girl!
When men say I'm cute and funny And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl, I just lap it up like honey I enjoy being a girl!
I flip when a fellow sends me flowers, I drool over dresses made of lace, I talk on the telephone for hours With a pound and a half of cream upon my face!
I'm strictly a female female And my future I hope will be In the home of a brave and free male Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.
When men say I'm sweet as candy As around in a dance we whirl, It goes to my head like brandy, I enjoy being a girl!
When someone with eyes that smoulder Says he loves every silken curl That falls on my iv'ry shoulder, I enjoy being a girl!
When I hear the compliment'ry whistle That greets my bikini by the sea, I turn and I glower and I bristle, But I'm happy to know the whistle's meant for me!
I'm strictly a female female And my future I hope will be In the home of a brave and free male Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me.
