Pardon Me For Loving And Running Lyrics & Chords By Mae West

Yes it was swell, sure it was great But I just remembered a subsequent date It isn't that it wasn't perfectly stunning But pardon me for loving and running Mmmm, it was grand, that much is plain But bubbles don't last in the best of champagne I like your savoire faire, your manners are cunning But pardon me for loving and running I really gotta fly, I got a hat to buy I got my nails to be shined I've got a train to catch, I've got an egg to hatch Besides, what's the difference, can't I change my mind? Thanks for the tea, crumpets and ball And did I say thanks for the use of the hall? And as we say in French, excuse le pun Pardon me if I love and run You men are all alike Give your finger and you want the whole arm A lady's got to go sometime So why get excited? Where's the fire? Who's ignited? You better turn off that alarm Now look, fun is fun but I've got work to do And when I'm through I'm definitely through Gotta fluctuate, I've got some books to plate I've got my laundry to dry I've got to pluck a duck, I've got to change my luck Besides, I'm through, so why do I need an alibi? Thank you so much, thanks for the waltz Your feet was too fast but we all have our faults So just unlock that door and lay down that gun It's hard on you It's hard on me But pardon me if I love and run
