What This Country Needs versuri

Versuri Martha Tilton & Jimmie Dodd – What This Country Needs lyrics

[Martha Tilton:]
Hello, countrymen, hear me shout.
I’ve got the whole thing figured out.
What the country needs is more moonlight, more kisses and sighs,
more little white lies, like lovers love to coo.

What the country needs is more romance,
more flowers in spring, more people who say,
I love you, I love you, I do.

Look at the folks across the sea,
they’re all at war today.
There’d be no war across the sea
if the people all would rise and say,

what the country needs is more moonlight,
more feminine charms.
In masculine arms,
that’s just what the country needs.

[Musical riff]

[Jimmie Dodd:]
What the country needs is more moonlight,
more kissing and hugs,
more cutting up rugs,
and skiddly-bip, giddly-biddley-hip-ho, babe.

[Vince Barnett:]
I’ve just begun to realize, love makes the world go round.
[Martha Tilton:]
Just bring your boyfriend home and say,
oh mama, mama, look what I found.

What the country needs is more moonlight,
[Vince Barnett:]
more feminine charms.
[Martha Tilton:]
In masculine arms, that’s just what the country needs.
[Choir:]
That’s just what the country needs.
