about

I Go For That
by Matty Malneck & Frank Loesser
1938

lyrics

- - - - -

Some people simply love to eat raw fish,
And pay high rent, and dance on broken glass.
Some people simply love to kill themselves, and sad to say,
I think I'm in that class, alas!

Your dopey walk, your double talk,
I go for that!

Your corny jokes, your crazy folks,
I go for that!

Your kiss just misses, your dancing is rough,
But I like that stuff!
I guess I don't get around quite enough!

You play the uke.. you're from Debuque,
I go for that;
And furthermore, I just adore
Your fuzzy hair... your vacant stare..

To Mister Cupid
I take off my hat;
You can't account for silly taste,
Of all the hearts I could have chased,
I look at you.. and ooh! I go for that.
