In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking --
Now, Hea - ven knows, an - y - thing goes.
Good authors, too, who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writ - ing prose, an - y - thing goes.
Bridge:
The world has gone mad today, and good's bad today
And black's white today and day's night today
And most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gi - gi - los.
So though I'm not a great ro - man - cer
I know that you're bound to ans - wer when
I pro - pose an - y - thing goes.
