Why Can't You Behave?
Cole Porter

Why can't you behave?

Oh, why can't you behave?

After all the things you told me,

And the promises that you gave,

Oh, why can't you behave?

Why, why, why can't you be good?

I was faithful and true but what good will it do

And do, do just as you should?

Yes you had the right touch but I was askin' too much

Won't you turn that new leaf over,

So your baby can be your slave?

Oh, why can't you behave?

There's a farm I know near my old home town,

Where we two can go and try settling down.

There I'll care for you forever,

'Cause you're all in this world I crave.

Oh, why can't you behave?

Why can't you behave?
