Aren’t You Glad You’re You - Gerry Mulligan Quartet

Every time you’re near a rose

Aren’t you glad you’ve got a nose

And if the dawn is fresh with dew

Aren’t you glad you’re you

When a meadowlark appears

Aren’t you glad you’ve got two ears

And if your heart is singin' too

Aren’t you glad you’re you

You can see a summer sky

Or touch a friendly hand

Or taste an apple pie

Pardon the grammar, but ain’t life grand

And when you wake up each morn

Aren’t you glad that you were born

Think what you’ve got the whole day through

Aren’t you glad you’re you

------ instrumental break ------

Every time you’re near a rose

Aren’t you glad you’ve got a nose

And if the dawn is fresh with dew

Aren’t you glad you’re you

When a meadowlark appears

Aren’t you glad you’ve got two ears

And if your heart is singin' too

Aren’t you glad you’re you

You can see a summer sky

Or touch a friendly hand

Or taste an apple pie

Pardon the grammar, but ain’t life grand

And when you wake up each morn

Aren’t you glad that you were born

Think what you’ve got the whole day through

Aren’t you glad you’re you
