Why should a woman who is healthy and strong
Blubber like a baby if her man goes away?
A-weepin' and a-wailin' how he done her wrong
That’s one thing you’ll never hear me say!
Never gonna' think that the man I lose is the only man among men
I’ll snap my fingers to show I don’t care;
I’ll buy me a brand new dress to wear;
I’ll scrub my neck and I’ll brush my hair
And start all over again
Many a new face will please my eye
Many a new love will find me;
Never’ve I once looked back to sigh over the romance behind me;
Many a new day will dawn before I do!
Many a light lad may kiss and fly
A kiss gone by is bygone
Never’ve I asked an August sky, «Where has last July gone?»
Never’ve I wandered through the rye, wondering where has some guy gone;
Many a new day will dawn before I do!
Many a new face will please my eye
Many a new love will find me;
Never’ve I once looked back to sigh over the romance behind me;
Many a new day will dawn before I do!
Many a light lad may kiss and fly
A kiss gone by is bygone
Never’ve I asked an August sky, «Where has last July gone?»
Never’ve I wandered through the rye, wondering where has some guy gone;
Many a new day will dawn before I do!
Many a red sun will set!
Many a blue moon will shine before I do!
