Billie Holiday
Nice Work If You Can Get It [11-01-1937]
[Verse 1]
Holding hands at midnight
'Neath the starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Verse 2]
Strolling with the one boy
Sighing sigh after sigh
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Verse 3]
Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
[Verse 4]
Loving one who loves you
And then taking that vow
Nice work if you can get it
And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
