Shirley Jones - Many A New Day
Many A New Day
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein
Music by Richard Rodgers
Sung in the Broadway show "Oklahoma" by Joan Roberts and cast
Sung in the film "Oklahoma" by Shirley Jones and cast
[Laurey]
Why should a woman who is healthy and strong
Blubber like a baby if her man goes away
A-weepin' and a-wailin' how he's done her wrong?
That's one thing you'll never hear me say
Never gonna think that the man I lose
Is the only man among men
I'll snap my fingers to show I don't care
I'll buy me a brand new dress to wear
I'll scrub my neck and I'll brush my hair
And start all over again
Many a new face will please my eye
Many a new love will find me
Never have I once looked back to sigh
Over the romance behind me
Many a new day will dawn
Before I do
Many a light lad may kiss and fly
A kiss gone by is bygone
Never have I asked an August sky
"Where has last July gone?"
Never have I wandered through the rye
Wonderin' where has some guy gone
Many a new day will dawn
Before I do
[Together]
Many a new face will please my eye
Many a new love will find me
Never have I once looked back to sigh
Over the romance behind me
Many a new day will dawn
Before I do
[Laurey]
Never have I chased the honeybee
Who carelessly cajoled me
Somebody else just as sweet as he
Cheered me and consoled me
Never have I wept into my tea
Over the deal someone doled me
[Together]
Many a new day will dawn
[Laurey]
Many a red sun will set
Many a blue moon will shine
Before I do
<instrumental and dance interlude>
[Together]
Many a new face will please my eye
Many a new love will find me
Never have I once looked back to sigh
Over the romance behind me
Many a new day will dawn
[Laurey]
Many a red sun will set
Many a blue moon will shine
