Saturday Night With Mr. C. ~ LSP-1971
 
It Had To Be You
 
It had to be you, it had to be you,
I wandered around an' finally found
Somebody who 
Could make me be true 
Could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad,
thinkin' of you, 
 
Some others I've seen
Might never be mean
Might never be cross, or try to be boss,
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else gave me a thrill, 
With all your faults, I love you still,
It had to be you, wonderful you,
it had to be you! 
 
< instrumental verse >

Might never be cross, or try to be boss,
But they wouldn't do
Nobody else gave me a thrill, 
With all your faults, I love you still,
It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you! 
It just had to be you!
