Sing for Your Supper
Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart
[Verse 1]
Sing for your supper, and you'll get breakfast
Songbirds always eat
If their song is sweet to hear
[Verse 2]
Sing for your luncheon, and you'll get dinner
Dine with wine of choice
If romance is in your voice
[Bridge]
I heard from a wise canary
Trilling makes a fellow willing
So, little swallow, swallow now
Now is the time to
[Verse 3]
Sing for your supper, and you'll get breakfast
Songbirds are not dumb
They don't buy a crumb of bread, it's said
So sing and you'll be fed
