I CAN'T RESIST MEN

from 1954 film "Mad About Men" sung by Glynis Johns
(Ben Bernard 1954)

Glynis Johns
with Ray Martin & his Orchestra
recorded 1954 London


I can't resist men,
Can't do without them.
Weak ones or strong,
Right me or wrong,
I don't mind.
Here in my arms
They all have charms,
I'm so fond of -

Men!
I love them all, then
Easy to date,
That's been my fate;
>From the age of ten,
I can't resist men!

I'm a girl with a secret worry,
Not what I seem to be.
Got to change my life in a hurry,
Make up my mind, you see.
For I'm under the spell of a soldier divine,
I want him for mine, wouldn't you?
Yet if truth were to tell I'm not single minded,
Another man has blinded my view!

How can I be sure
My feelings are quite pure,
When I can't choose between them?
How can I be wed
When I'm so easily led?
Is it just my meekness
Or can it be my weakness -

That I can't resist men,
Can't do without them?
Weak ones or strong,
Right me or wrong,
I don't mind.
Here in my arms
They all have charms,
I'm so fond of -

Men!
I love them all, then
Easy to date,
That's been my fate;
>From the age of ten,
I can't resist men!
