Additional quotes by Ira Gershwin

Summertime and the livin' is easy,
Fish are jumpin', and the cotton is high.
Oh yo' daddy's rich, and yo' ma is good lookin',
So hush, little baby, don' yo' cry.

You've made my life so glamorous,
You can't blame me for feeling amorous.
'S wonderful, 's marvellous
That you should care for me.

The way you wear your hat,
The way you sip your tea,
The mem'ry of all that –
No, no! They can't take that away from me!
