My Cousin in Milwaukee

GEORGE GERSHWIN, IRA GERSHWIN

(Chorus)
I got a cousin in Milwaukee
She's got a voice so squawky
And though she's tall and kind of gawky
Oh, how she gets the men

Her singing isn't operatic
It's got a lot of static
It makes your heart get acrobatic
Nine times out of ten

When she sings hot, you can't be solemn
It sends the shivers up and down your spinal column
When she sings blue, the men shout, ""What stuff!""
That baby is hot stuff

So if you like the way I sing songs
If you think that I'm a wow
You can thank my squawky cousin from Milwaukee
Because she taught me how
