I DON'T LIKE
As recorded by George Formby, 11-Jul-1937.

I'm so shy in ev'ry way.
Can't tell what I want to say.
Afraid I'm much too slow.
Other lovers get on swell,
But when I'm beneath your spell,
I can't let myself go.

I don't like.
Full of passion I could be.
You'd wonder what's come over me,
But I don't like.
If you knew,
I could be romantic too,
And even prove how I love you,
But I don't like.
Can't we take a lesson
From the birdies up above?
They enjoy life's blessin'
And they all get on with a little bit o' love.
But I don't like.
On my knees I'd gladly go.
I'd be a reg'lar Romeo,
But I don't like.

I don't like.
When I'm all alone with you,
There's always somethin' we could do,
But I don't like.
I'm not rough.
Sure I've waited long enough.
I want to start and do my stuff,
But I don't like.
Can't we take a lesson
From the birdies up above?
They enjoy life's blessin'
And they all get on with a little bit o' love.
But I don't like.
If I had the stronger will,
I'm certain I'd give you a thrill,
But I don't like.

I don't like.
I've never loved a girl before.
I'd take you home and lock the door,
But I don't like.
