PC: She's a Lady
BH: I'm a Lady! 
PC: She's a Lady
BH: I'm a Lady! 
PC: She's as quiet as a mouse 
Why, she would never ever raise her voice to a shout 
BH: Not unless somebody else is drownin' me out! 

PC: Yes, She's a Lady
BH: I'm a Lady! 
PC: High faloutin'
BH: You're darn tootin'! 
PC: And her manners are superb 
BH: Yesterday I wore a gown of satin an' lace, 
You took me out dinin' to the ritziest place 
PC: And when they brought the finger bowl, 
Why you washed your face! 
BH: Ah! I'm a Lady!
PC: She's a Lady 
BH: Oh yeah! 

BH: He's a Lover!
PC: I'm a Lover! 
BH: He's big hearted!
PC: Once I've started! 
Nothin' is good for you! 
BH: Say, how do you mean that? 
PC: I bought you a golden necklace fit for a Queen 
BH: If that's a golden necklace, why's my neck turnin' green? 

BH: He's Romantic!
PC: I'm Romantic! 
BH: He's the shy type!
PC: Yes, it's my type! 
BH: He's the kind that girls can't trust! 
Some guys take a girl out ridin' an' when they do, 
she may have to walk home, that don't happen to you! 
PC: That's because I take them riding in a canoe 
BH: Oh! He's a lover!
PC: I'm a lover
BH: Oh yeah! 

PC: She's a Lady
BH: I'm a Lady! 
PC: She's the fine type
BH: Home at nine type!

She's the most refined girl that the city has got 
BH: I will beat up anyone who says that I'm not! 

PC: She's a High-Brow
BH: I'm a High-Brow? 
PC: You're what class is!
BH: You need glasses! 
PC: You know just how things are done 
In a crowded bus, you find a guy with a seat 
Then you drop your hanky so it lands at his feet 
BH: When he stands up to get it, that's when I grab his seat! 
PC: Yes, She's a Lady
BH: I'm a Lady!
PC: Oh yeah! 

BH: He's a Singer!
PC: I'm a Singer! 
BH: Like Caruso!
PC: Learned to do so in a barber-shop quartet 
I once gave a hair-cut to a fellow one day 
I started singing "Mammy" an' kept cutting away 
BH: Yeah, now they call him 'baldy' an' he wears a toupee! 

PC: You're a Lady!
BH: You're a Barber! 
PC: You're a High-Brow!
BH: You're a Sin-ger! 
PC: Hee hee, I'm a Sin-ger?
BH: Ha, ha ha ha! 
PC: She's a Lady
BH: Ah! He's a Sin-ger!, Oh yeah!
