Nice Work If You Can Get It Lyrics

    Writer(s): author; gershwin/gershwin


    Verse:

    The man who only lives for making 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 and you won't regret it
    That's the best work of all, if you can get it

    Chorus:

    Holding hands at midnight
    'neath a starry sky
    Nice work if you can get it
    And you can get it if you try
    Strolling with the one girl
    Sighing sigh after sigh
    Nice work if you can get it
    And you can get it if you try

    Just imagine someone
    Waiting at the cottage door
    Where two hearts become one
    Who could ask for anything more?
    Loving one who loves you
    And then taking that vow
    It's nice work if you can get it
    And if you get it, won't you tell me how?
