Always True To You In My Fashion

(Cole Porter)



If a custom-tailored vet

Asks me out for something wet

When the vet

Begins to pet

I cry "Hooray!"

But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes I'm always true to you, darling, in my way



I've been asked to have a meal

By a big tycoon in steel

If the meal

Includes a deal

Accept I may

But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes I'm always true to you, darling, in my way



There's an oil man known as Tex

Who is keen to give me checks

And his checks, I fear

Mean that Tex is here

To stay

But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes I'm always true to you, darling, in my way



From Ohio Mister Thorn

Calls me up from night till morn

Mister Thorn once cornered corn and that ain't hay



But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes, I'm always true to you, darling, in my way



From Milwaukee mister fritz

Often dines me at the Ritz

Mister fritz invented schlitz and schlitz must pay



But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes, I'm always true to you, darling, in my way



Mister Harris, plutocrat, wants to give my cheek a pat

If the Harris pat means a Paris hat, okay



But I'm always true to you, darling, in my fashion

Yes, I'm always true to you, darling, in my way.

I'm always true to you, darling, in my old old fashion way
