My Best Girl lyrics, written by Jerry Herman, performed by Lucille Ball in Mame

You’re my best girl and nothing you do is wrong,
I’m proud you belong to me;
And if a day is rough for me,
Having you there’s enough for me.
But if someday another girl comes along,
It won’t take her long to see,
That I’ll still be found, just hanging around
My best girl.

If He Walked Into My Life, written by Jerry Herman, performed by Lucille Ball in Mame

Where’s that boy with the bugle?
My little love was always my big romance;
Where’s that boy with the bugle?
And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?

Did he need a stronger hand?
Did he need a lighter touch?
Was I soft or was I tough?
Did I give enough?
Did I give too much?Read More »If He Walked Into My Life

It’s Today lyrics, written by Jerry Herman, performed by Lucille Ball in Mame

Mame: Light the candles,
Get the ice out,
Roll the rug up,
It’s today.
Though it may not be anyone’s birthday,
And though it’s far from the first of the year,
I know that this very minute has history in it, we’re here!

Open A New Window lyrics – written by Jerry Herman, performed by Lucille Ball in Mame

Open a new window,
Open a new door,
Travel a new highway,
That’s never been tried before;
Before you find you’re a dull fellow,
Punching the same clock,
Walking the same tightrope
As everyone on the block.
