WHY AM I SO BEAUTIFUL?
>From the Popeye cartoon "Morning, Noon & Night Club" (1937)
(Words & Music by Bob Rothberg & Sammy Timberg)


Mae Questel (as the voice of Olive Oyl) - 1937





Why am I so beautiful?
Why do all the fellahs fall for me?
Why am I so beautiful?
Why do all the women envy me?

Can it be my grace or my form divine?
Can it be my face or these pretty feet of mine? Wooh!
Why am I so beautiful? 
Why, oh why, oh me, oh me, oh why?
