Nice Work If You Can Get It Lyrics by Kiri Te Kanawa

Kiri Sings Gershwin

0

[Intro: Kiri Te Kanawa]
The man who only works for makin' money
Lives a life that isn't necessarily sunny
Likewise the man who works for fame
There's no guarantee that time won't erase his name
The fact is
The only work that really brings enjoyment
Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant
Fall in love, you won't regret it
That's the best work of all if you can get it
[Verse 1: Kiri Te Kanawa]
Holding hands at midnight
'Neath a starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Verse 2: Kiri Te Kanawa]
Strolling with the one girl
Sighing sigh after sigh
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Bridge: Kiri Te Kanawa]
Just imagine someone
Waiting at thе cottage door
Where two hеarts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
[Verse 3: Kiri Te Kanawa]
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?
[Verse 1: Kiri Te Kanawa & New York Choral Artists]
Holding hands at midnight
'Neath a starry sky
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Verse 2: Kiri Te Kanawa & New York Choral Artists]
Strolling with the one girl
Sighing sigh after sigh
Nice work if you can get it
And you can get it if you try
[Bridge: Kiri Te Kanawa & New York Choral Artists]
Just imagine someone
Waiting at the cottage door
Where two hearts become one
Who could ask for anything more?
[Verse 3: Kiri Te Kanawa & New York Choral Artists]
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?
