Harry Belafonte - Gloria Lyrics
Lyrics:Can't bear this strain any longer, I tell you no, GloriaCan't bear this strain any longer, I tell you no, GloriaYou promised to marry me in the month of MayNow you try to run away, if it's the last thing I have to doGloria my darling I'm begging youPlease marry me Gloria, darling can't you see GloriaWith all your faults, I want you like a long dose of Epsom saltsI'd like to be a bachelor,Before I met GloriaI don't know what she did to meSome people think I'm crazySome say it's the treatment, some say it's this and thatSome say she's a diplomat, I don't care what the case may beCome darling let's join in matrimonySo please marry me Gloria, darling can't you see GloriaMy belly does boil, I want you like a bad dose of castor oilYou said you loved me but you lied,My friend saw you with another guyAnd now you have me in a stateWith all the doubts you createSoon as I turned my back you were on the goGloria girl I tell you no, and I beg you not to forgetA promise to me is more than a debtSo please marry me Gloria, sweetheart can't you see GloriaYou must understand, I want you like a cop wants a wanted manGloria is my only girlMy only hope in this worldGive me your hand and say you doCome back to me I'm telling youI want you to have and hold until death we partPlease don't try to break my heartI say stop all this stupidness darling and seal it now with a kissPlease marry me Gloria, darling can't you see GloriaYou lovely flower bud, I love you like a pig loves a pool of mud
