Original Broadway Cast of Annie Get Your Gun — My Defenses are Down

[FRANK] I've had my way with so many girls And it was lots of fun My system was to know many girls 'Twould keep me safe from one I find it can't be done My defenses are down She's broken my resistance And I don't know where I am I went into the fight like a lion But I came out like a lamb My defenses are down She's got me where she wants me And I can't escape no how I could speak to my heart when it weakened But my heart won't listen now Like a toothless, clawless tiger Like an organ grinder's bear Like a knight without his armor Like Samson without his hair My defenses are down I might as well surrender For the battle can't be won But I must confess that I like it So there's nothing to be done Yes, I must confess that I like it Being mis'rable is gonna be fun [MALE Chorus] Your defenses are down She's got you where she wants you And you can't escape no how [FRANK] I could speak to my heart when it weakened [MALE Chorus] But your heart won't listen now [FRANK] Like a toothless, clawless tiger Like an organ grinder's bear [MALE Chorus] Like a knight without his armor [FRANK] Like Samson without his hair My defenses are down [MALE Chorus] You might as well surrender For the battle can't be won [FRANK] But I must confess that I like it So there's nothing to be done [MALE Chorus] Yes, you must confess that you like it [FRANK] Being mis'rable [FRANK & MALE Chorus] Is gonna be fun
