Kurt Weill
A Boy Like You
[MRS. MAURRANT]
Somebody's going to be so handsome
Somebody's going to make me proud
Somebody's going to be so wonderful
He'll stand out from the crowd
Such a manly arm I'll have to lean on
When I walk down the avenue
Somebody will always be my standby
Who do you think it is?
Guess who?

[WILLIE, spoken]
Is it me, Ma?

[MRS. MAURRANT, spoken]
Of course it is, Willie
Now give me a great big kiss and run off to school, or you'll be late

(sung)
Somebody will never
No, not ever, forget to care and understand
Yes, that is the grandest feeling
That any woman ever knew
To know I have somebody wonderful
To know I have a boy like you
To know I have a boy like you
