"Cooking Breakfast For The One I Love"

Written by: William Rose and Henry Tobias
from the musical "Be Yourself" (c. 1930)

[ Chorus: ]
Morning, I'll be getting up, Morning, I'll be setting up.
A tiny table for two.
Breakfast, I'll be making {her} breakfast,
{she'll} be taking her shower,
My happy hour

[ 1st verse: ]
The coffee is steaming,
Oh boy what I'm dreaming
While I'm cooking breakfast
For the one I love.
My baby likes bacon,
And that's what I'm making!
While I'm cooking breakfast
For the one I love.
Our life has been so nice and cheery
right from the start
When I won {her} tummy, I won {her} heart.
My baby is happy, no wonder I'm happy
While I'm cooking breakfast for the one I love.

[ 2nd verse: ]
I'm baking a biscuit,
{She's} willing to risk it
While I'm cooking breakfast for the one I love.
{I'm} wiping the dishes and breaking the dishes
While I'm cooking breakfast for the one I love.
I serve a plate of steaming oatmeal
Taste it but schucks!
Who the heck wants oatmeal,
sprinkled with "Lux?"
{She} eats a big plateful (and)
Faints right after breakfast
For the one {she} loves
