"Sing For Your Supper"
(Lorenz Hart / Richard Rodgers)

Sing for your supper and you'll get breakfast!
Songbirds always eat.

If their song is sweet to hear!
Sing for your luncheon and you'll get dinner!
Dine with wine of choice
If romance is in your voice!

I heard from wise Canary
So little swallow, swallow now!
Now is the time to
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!

I heard from wise Canary
So little swallow, swallow now!
Now is time to
Sing for your supper and you'll get breakfast
Songbirds are not dumb.

They never buy a crumb of bread!
And it's said
So sing and you'll be fed, oh yeah!
Just sing and you'll be fed!
