- Verse:
- I have an ear for music,
And I have an eye for a maid.
I like a pretty girlie, With each pretty tune that's played.
- They go together, like sunny
weather, Goes with the month of May.
- I've studied girls and music,
So I'm qualified to say:
-
- Chorus:
- A pretty girl is like a
melody,
- That haunts you night and
day.
Just like the strain of a haunting refrain,
- She'll start upon a marathon,
And run around your brain,
- You can't escape she's in
your memory,
- By morning, night and noon,
- She will leave you and then
come back again,
- A pretty girl is just like
a pretty tune.
