You Can Have Him

You can have him, I don't want him He's not worth fighting for Besides, there's plenty more where he came from I don't want him, you can have him He isn't my concern And he can just return where he came from I could never make him happy He'd be better off with you I'm afraid I never loved him All I ever wanted to do was Run my fingers through his curly locks Mend his underwear and darn his socks Fetch his slippers and remove his shoes Wipe his glasses when he read the news Rub his forehead with a gentle touch Mornings after when he's had too much Kiss him gently when he cuddled near Give him babies, one for every year So you see I don't wan' him, you can have him You can have him, I don't wan' him For he's not the man for me I would look a trifle silly Taking him away from you That was never my intention All I ever wanted to do was Close the window while he soundly slept Raid the icebox where the food is kept Cook a breakfast that would please him most Eggs and coffee and some buttered toast Wake him gently with a breakfast tray After breakfast clear the things away Bring the papers, and when they've been read Spend the balance of the day in bed So you see I don't wan' him, you can have him You can have him, I don't wan' him For he's not the man for me I don't wan' him, you can have him You can have him, I don't wan' him For he's not the man for me --- You Can Have Him - Doris Day and Dinah Shore
