In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking --
Now, Hea - ven knows, an - y - thing goes.
Good authors, too, who once knew better words
Now only use four-letter words
Writ - ing prose, an - y - thing goes.
The world has gone mad today, and good's bad today
And black's white today and day's night today
And most guys today that women prize today
Are just silly gi - bi - los.
So though I'm not a great ro - man - cer
I know that you're bound to ans - wer when
I pro - pose an - y - thing goes.
