I'M A FUNNY DAME
From the Broadway show "Happy Hunting" (1956)
(Matt Dubey / Harold Karr)

Ethel Merman (Broadway Production) - 1956
Eartha Kitt - 1956


I'm a funny dame, maybe I don't say I love you
Maybe sometimes I don't exactly show I love you
Though I'm not much at saying to you "Thank you"
I'm yours just the same

I'm a funny dame, even though my heart is filling
Guess I can't say why I can't be soft and clinging
Sure, I know it's wrong, but that's how I am
I'm a funny dame

(Instrumental Break)

I'm a funny dame, even though my heart is filling
Guess I can't say why I just can't be soft and clinging
Sure, I know it's wrong, but that's how I am
I'm a funny dame
