[Verse:]
|
When life catches up with the flaming youth
|
Someone tries to tell them the awful truth
|
I would send them ignorant on their way
|
To those little innocents I would say
|
|
[1st refrain:]
|
Don't worry so about the things that you don't know
|
When the time comes and you find yourself in love
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|
|
Don't be concerned about the things you haven't learned
|
If you can't express just what you're thinking of
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|
|
No one teaches a duck how to swim or a bird how to fly
|
They're not taught to do what they ought to do
|
Why should you and I?
|
|
Don't be afraid because you're such a bashful maid
|
When you're strolling 'neath the silv'ry moon
|
You may be shy but pretty soon
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|
|
[2nd refrain:]
|
Don't start to plan to rebuff a fresh young man
|
When you're in a cab and he starts making free
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|
|
Don't lie awake and think of answers you might make
|
When he starts to put his hand upon your knee
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|
|
No one teaches a mule how to kick or a dog how to bite
|
They know what to do and what not to do
|
When they're out at night
|
|
Don't be undone because the first round has been won
|
He begins to think that you're a dunce
|
It seems you're lost, then all at once
|
It'll come to you, you'll know what to do, it'll come to you
|

It'll Come To You
