I expect everyone
of my crowd to make fun
of my proud protestations of faith and romance
And they'll say I'm naive
as a babe to believe
every fable I hear from a person in pants
Fearlessly, I'll face um and argue their doubts away
Loudly, I'll sing about flowers in spring
Flatly, I'll stand on my little flat feet and say
Love is a grand and a beautiful thing
I'm not ashamed to reveal,
the world famous feeling I feel
I'm as corny as Kansas in August,
I'm as normal as blueberry pie,
no more a smart little girl with no heart,
I have found me a wonderful guy
I am in a conventional dither,
with a conventional star in my eye
And you will note there's a lump in my throat,
when I speak of that wonderful guy
I'm as trite and as gay as a daisy in may
a cliche' coming true,
I'm bromitic and bright as a moon
happy night pouring light on the dew
I'm as corny as Kansas in August,
high as the flag on the 4th of July
If you'll excuse an expression I use
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love,
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with a wonderful guy!

I'm bromitic and bright as a moon
happy night pouring light on the dew
I'm as corny as Kansas in August,
high as the flag on the 4th of July
If you'll excuse an expression I use
I'm in love (13x) with a wonderful guy!
