Nobody Else But Me

Dinah Shore · Lower Basin Street Revisited [2002]

I want to be, no one but me



I am in love with a lover



Who likes me the way I am



I have my faults, he likes my faults



I'm not very bright, he's not very bright



He thinks I'm grand, that's grand for me



He may be wrong, but if we get along



What do we care? Say we



When he holds me close, close as we can be



I tell the lad that I'm grateful and I'm glad that



I'm nobody else but me



I was a shy, demure type, inhibited, insecure type of girl



A pearl, of no great price was I



Till a certain cutie called me sweetie pie



Now I'm smug and snooty and my head is high



I want to be, no one but me



I may be wrong, but if we get along



What do we care? Say we



When he holds me close, close as we can be



Say I tell the lad that I'm grateful and I'm glad that



I'm nobody else, nobody else



Don't wanna be nobody else but me
