Thank Heaven for Little Girls

Rosemary Clooney

Each time I see a little girl

Of five or six or seven

I can't resist a joyous urge

To smile and say

Thank heaven

For little girls

For little girls get bigger every day

Thank heaven

For little girls

They grow up in the most delightful way

Those little eyes so helpless and appealing

One day will flash and send you crashing

Through the ceiling

Thank heaven for little girls

Thank heaven for them all

No matter where

No matter who

Without them

What would little boys do?

Thank heaven

Thank heaven

Thank heaven for little girls

Those little eyes so helpless and appealing

One day will flash

And send you crashing through the ceiling

Thank heaven for little girls

Thank heaven for them all

No matter where

No matter who

Without them what would little boys do?

Thank heaven

Thank heaven

Thank heaven for little girls

Thank heaven for little girls
