George Gershwin — Hangin Around with You

(Verse 1) [ANNE] Once You would hang around me Hang 'Round me night and day I Thought that love had found me When we became that way Now It's a different story You're Not a one-girl man I Heard you're in your glory Playing the Dapper Dan You may tell me you're a saint But listen to my complaint (Chorus 1) What's the use of hangin' around with you? Hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Dearie? I never know, I never know just where I stand What's the use of bangin' around with you Bangin' around with you Bangin' around with you Dearie? You've got to give this little girl a bigger hand You're not acting the beau That I once used to know I'm beginning to see That I'm likely to be On the shelf If you want me hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Dearie You've got to learn, you've got to learn to be yourself (Verse 2) [TIMOTHY] I Simply must deny it I Swear it isn't true My Heart is on a diet Darlin', except for you When I'm with other damsels Rea- Lly I don't go far I try to tell those mam'selles Just what a peach you are I've been so misunderstood Though I've tried to be so good (Chorus 2) What's the use of hangin' around with you? Hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Dearie? I never know, I never know just where I'm at What's the use of bangin' around with you Bangin' around with you Bangin' around with you Dearie? Oh, I'm afraid you're forcing me to leave you flat [ANNE] Please don't be in a huff It was only a bluff Everything is in vain If you mean to remain So upstage [TIMOTHY] If you want me hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Hangin' around with you Dearie You've got to learn, you've got to learn to act your age
