How About You? Lyrics - Jimmy Raney Trio

When a girl meets boy 

Life can be a joy 

But the note they end on 

Will depend on 

Little pleasures they will share 

So let us compare 

I like New York in June, how about you? 

I like a Gershwin tune, how about you? 

I love a fireside when a storm is due. 

I like potato chips, moonlight and motor trips, 

How about you? 

I'm mad about good books, can't get my fill, 

And Franklin Roosevelt's looks give me a thrill. 

Holding hands at the movie show, 

When all the lights are low 

May not be new, but I like it, 

How about you? 

I like Jack Benny's jokes. 

To a degree. 

I love the common folks. 

That includes me. 

I like to window shop on 5th Avenue. 

I like banana splits, late supper at the Ritz, 

How about you? 

I love to dream of fame, maybe I'll shine. 

I'd love to see your name right beside mine. 

I can see we're in harmony, 

Looks like we both agree 

On what to do, 

And I like it, how about you?
