"How About You" lyrics - CHET BAKER

"How About You"

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?
