Ethel Merman feat. Gordon Jenkins Lyrics
"The Best Thing For You"

Please let me say from the start
I don't pretend to be smart
I just suggest what I think best
Having your interest at heart

I only want what's the best thing for you
And the best thing for you would be me
I've been convinced after thinking it through
That the best thing for you would be me

Every day
To myself I say
Point the way
What will it be

I ask myself what's the best thing for you
And myself and I seem to agree
That the best thing for you would be me
