MAGGIE / (--JO--) / BOTH.
On how to be lovely
(--On how to be lovely--)
You got to be happy
(--You got to be happy--)
When you can feel
light and gay
Then you'll be lovely
as a holiday.
On how to be charming
(--On how to be charming--)
You got to be merry
(--You got to be merry--)
If only to weave a spell
And you'll be lovely
As a carousel too.
I (--I know you can--) show how.
It's (--it's all in the--) know-how.
And (--and once you know--) oh how
The world looks good to you
As it should to you.
On how to be lovely
(--On how to be lovely--)
You got to be jolly
(--You got to be jolly--)
When you can be fancy-free
And flash a smile that
Folks come flocking to see.
Can't (--can't do it with--) make-up
You (--you've just got to--) wake up
And (--and startin' to--) take up
A life delirious
Nothing serious.
On how to be lovely
(--On how to be lovely--)
You got to be cheery
(--You got to be cheery--)
I'll give you a guarantee
You don't need dough
You don't need a college degree.
Make sorrow incidental
(--Let joy be monumental--)
And you'll be lovely
Do-wee-oo
Do-wee-oo(---ee--)
Do-wee-oo
Do-wee-oo(---ee--)
You'll be as lovely
As can be
A-do-ee-oo-ee-oo-ee-oo!
