I’LL GIVE YOU THREE GUESSES
(Mancini / Mercer)
Julie Andrews
If you’re good at riddle-solving
If you make the claim
That no puzzle ever puzzles you
Here is one that needs evolving
Here’s a guessing game
That should be a snap for you to do
I’ll give you three guesses who loves you
Who’s loved you right from the start
Not your mother who likes to baby you so
And not the girl at home you used to know
Oh no, there’s somebody special who needs you
Together or apart
Bet you don’t need three guesses and not even two
To know that I’m the one sweetheart
(Tap-dancing)
(Male singers) There’s somebody special who needs you
Together or apart
(JA) Bet you don’t need three guesses and not even two
(Both) To know that I’m the one sweetheart
