You Can Do Better Than Him Lyrics - Bonnie & Clyde - Original Broadway Cast Recording - Frank Wildhorn

TED: 

I give you fair warning 

He's no bed of roses sweet Bonnie 

I can't see him finding the time 

to raise children, Hell no 

He's wild and he's reckless 

Ain't nothing but trouble 

You're better without him 

Ya think hard sweet Bonnie 

And then you should think once again. 

We both know 

You can do better than him 

Why you deserve someone who's there all the time 

Someone who thinks crime don't pay 

I still see the snowy white dress that you wore 

Playing the angel in some dumb school play 

For a while I thought that you would fly away 

I still see the apple cheeked girl that you were-yep 

Hidin' in treetops 

And feeding the birds 

Makin' up rhymes 

How you loved pretty words 

CLYDE: 

You could find someone that people respect 

A man who is rich and smart 

Someone who's known in all the right places 

And knows the good book by heart 

But I know 

TED: 

But I know 

BOTH: 

You won't do better than me 

No - Not when it comes down to love that is true. 

There's no man who could love you like I do.
