What’s the Use of Wond’rin’ Lyrics by Shirley Jones

Carousel (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

0

[JULIE]
What's the use of wond'rin'
If he's good or if he's bad
Or if you like the way he wears his hat?
Oh, what's the use of wond'rin'
If he's good or if he's bad?
He's your feller and you love him
That's all there is to that
Common sense may tell you
That the endin' will be sad
And now's the time to break and run away
But what's the use of wond'rin'
If the endin' will be sad?
He's your feller and you love him
There's nothin' more to say
Somethin' made him the way that he is
Whether he's false or true
And somethin' gave him the things that are his
One of those things is you
So when he wants your kisses
You will give them to the lad
And anywhere he leads you, you will walk
And anytime he needs you
You'll go runnin' there like mad
You're his girl and he's your feller
And all the rest is talk
[WOMEN]
Common sense may tell you
That the endin' will be sad
And now's the time to break and run away
But what's the use of wond'rin'
If the endin' will be sad?
He's your feller and you love him
There's nothin' more to say
