Better face the factsol' buddy

And be prepared to take the blow.

You don't have to sit and study

It's something anyone should know.

Shake hands... get your hat...

And go.



You can praise her eyes

And adore her hair.

But if love ain't there

It ain't there.



And you can walk her home

In the warm spring air

But if love ain't there

It ain't there.



And you can look

With a longing in your look

And try every method in the book

And worship the smile that kind of

Took you unaware.



And you can weep and sigh

You can say"unfair".

You can almost die of despair.

But if love ain't there

It ain't there.
