Lyrics Many a New Day / I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair - Richard Rodgers , Oscar Hammerstein II

Why should a woman who is healthy and strong
Blubber like a baby if her man goes away?
A weepin' an' a whalin' how he's done her wrong
That's one thing you'll never hear me say!
Never gonna think that the man I lose is the only man among men!
I'll snap my fingers to show I don't care
I'll buy me a brand new dress to wear
I'll scrub my neck
And I'll brush my hair
And start all over again!

I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair
And send him on his way

I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms
And send him on his way
Don't try to patch it up
Tear it up, tear it up!
Wash him out, dry him out
Push him out, fly him out
Cancel him and let him go!
Yea, sister!

I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair (Wash that man)
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair (Wash that man)
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair (Wash that man)
And send him on his way

If a man don't understand you (Ooh)
If you fly on separate beams (Separate beams)
Waste no time, make a change
Ride that man right off your range
Rub him out of the roll call
And drum him out of your dreams
Oh no, oh no!

I'm gonna wash that man
I'm gonna wash that man
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair
And send him on his way
His way
Just turn to him and say
"It's been swell, it's been grand
You like my hair? Me too!
Now, get out!"
