"If You Can't Smile and Say Yes"
(Louis Jordan, Timmie Rodgers)
Knock me a kiss, you'll never miss
When I'm ready to go.
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
Squeeze me a squoze in these fine clothes,
Mmmm...I love you so.
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
When I ask for a date, the answer is no.
You don't know what you're sayin'.
Don't you know the war's on,
Everything is rationed,
How 'bout that jive, keep me alive?
Baby, let bygones be bygones,
'Cause men are scarce as nylons.
And if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
Please don't cry and say no, no, no, baby
Please don't cry and say no.

Very seductive expression -- perfect for the title and lyrics -- and the tones go perfectly with the period dress, Jean. Happy Theme Day. #6916249Leslie McLain December 20, 2008
