Let Me Entertain You Lyrics - Ethel Merman

Let me entertain you 

Let me make you smile 

Let me do a few tricks 

Some old and then some new tricks 

I'm very versatile 

And if you're real good 

I'll make you feel good 

I'd want your spirit to climb 

So let me entertain you 

We'll have a real good time 

Yes sir 

We'll have 

A real good time 

Hello! Hello everybody 

My name is Gypsy Rose Lee - what's yours? 

Mr. Conductor, if you please 

So, let me entertain you 

And we'll have a real good time, yes, sir 

We'll have 

A real good time 

Gypsy Rose Lee 

Pick up your apples girls and back to the trees 

Bon soir, monsieur et monsieur 

Je m'appelle Gypsy Rose Lee 

And that concludes my entire performance in French 

I've been too busy learning Greek 

Where were you last night? 

Some men accused me of being an ecdysiast 

Do you know what that means? Do you? 

Do you? Oh, you do 

Aha! He's embarrassed 

Don't be embarrassed 

I like man without hair 

An ecdysiast is one who or that which 

Sheds its skin 

In vulgar parlance a stripper 

But I'm not a stripper 

At these prices, I'm an ecdysiast
