Take Her In Your Arms lyrics
Have you seen him on the corner
And his lip would reach the pavement.
He s been hiding from his razor,
Is he not an awful sight?
In love he was the purist,
How he s frightening our tourists.
If he d gone and asked his father
Oh, I m sure he d set him right, sayin

"Take her in your arms
And tell her that you love her,
Take her in your arms
And hold that woman tight.
Won t you take her in your arms
And tell her that you love her.
If you re going to love a woman
Then be sure you do it right."

Now he met her at a disco
In a dive in San Francisco
And it all might have been different
Had he seen her in daylight.
She was painted, she was scented,
But she drove your man demented
If he d gone and asked his father
Oh, I m sure he d set him right, sayin

Here s a pub with fun and laughter
The landlord s buying bevvy.
There s a session in the corner
And the crack is grand tonight,
But your man who s lost his woman,
He s still at home lamenting.
If he d gone and asked his father
Oh, I m sure he d set him right, sayin

Now, depression s not a million laughs
But suicide s too dangerous.
Don t go leppin out of buildings
In the middle of the night.
It s not the fall --- but landin
That ll alter social standin
So go first and ask your father
Oh, I m sure he ll set you right, sayin

Here s a health to all true lovers,
Their sisters and their brothers,
And their uncles and their grannies,
For this thing is black and white.
If you re keen to start romancin
With its leppin and its dancin
Then go first and ask your father
And I m sure he ll set you right, sayin
