Give Him The Ooh-la-la Lyrics - Blossom Dearie

Say you're fond of fancy thing 

Diamond clips and emerald rings 

And you want your man to come through 

Give him the ooh-la-la 

When your car is asked to stop 

By a handsome traffic cop 

'Less you want a ticket or two 

Give him the ooh-la-la 

If Napoleon at Waterloo-la-la 

Had an army of debutantes 

To give the British the well known, ooh-la-la 

He would have changed the history of France 

When your favorite Romeo 

Grabs his hat and starts to go 

Don't reveal the fact that you're blue 

Don't break down and start to boo hoo 

There's just one thing for you 

La, la to la, la do la, la 

Like Tallulah just 

Give him the ooh-la-la 

If Napoleon at Waterloo, la, la 

Had an army of debutantes 

To give the British the well known ooh-la-la 

He'd have changed the history of France 

When your favorite Romeo 

Grabs his hat and starts to go 

Don't reveal the fact that you're blue 

Don't break down and start to boo hoo 

There's just one thing for you 

La, la to la, la do la, la 

Like Tallulah just 

Give him the ooh-la-la 

The ooh-la-la 

The ooh-la-la 

You'd better be like Tallulah 

Don't be a fool, ah 

Give him the ooh-la-la
