It's a Great Big Land



[Verse]
 * Billy. Girls! Girls! This land is full of girls,
 * and I have met them all, I vow.
 * And most of the lot I soon forgot:
 * Some I did not Till now.


 * I have known girls who liked to flirt, and I've known girls who told their mothers;
 * Ah, but you're the only one who's really diffrent from the others:

[Burthen]
 * Billy. It's a great big land,
 * Full of Mollies, Kates and Daisies.
 * It's a large, wide land,
 * Simply stuffed with Mauds and Maisies:


 * As you travel from the Bronx to San Francisco,
 * Girls of every variety you view:
 * But in all the population of this great and growing nation
 * I have never found a girl like you.


 * From New York to Minnesota,
 * Ev'ry state supplied its quota,
 * But I've never found a girl like you.

[Verse]
 * Jane. Men! Men! This land is full of men,
 * as all the census books agree:
 * But try as I might, I've never quite
 * Found one that's right for me.


 * I have kept them at a distance, or I've treated them like brothers,
 * But I've always felt that each was just exactly like the others;

[Burthen]
 * Jane. It's a great big land,
 * Full of Toms and Dicks and Teddies;
 * It's a large, wide land,
 * Cluttered up with Jacks and Freddies:


 * Even though you stay at home and never travel,
 * Men of ev'ry known variety you view:
 * But in all the population of this great and growing nation
 * I have never found a man like you.


 * From New York to Minnesota,
 * Ev'ry state supplied its quota,
 * But I've never found a man like you.
