Lyrics Song of Love - The Original Broadway Cast

Actually, my full name is Winnifred the-wall-begun
But Winnifred is a little too formal
You can call me by my nickname
Winnie?
Fred
Fred! what a beautiful name
So straight, so strong, so you

I like you, Fred, I like you
You're just saying those words to be kind
No, I mean it I like, I mean I love you Fred
He is out of his Medieval mind
I'm perfectly sane and sound
I've never felt better in my life
Everybody, everybody, everybody
Come and meet my incipient wife

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
My reasons must be clear
When she shows you all how strong she is
You'll stand right up and cheer
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She drinks just like a lord
So come sing a merry drinking song
And let the wine be poured

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She sings just like a bird
You'll be left completely speechless
When her gentle voice is heard

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She wrestles like a greek
You will clap your hands in wonder
At her fabulous technique

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She dances with such grace
You are bound to sing her praises
Till you're purple in the face

Bravo, bravo, bravissimo
Bravo, bravissimo

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
She's musical to boot
She will set your feet a tapping
When she plays upon her lute

Bravo, bravo, bravissimo
Bravo, bravissimo

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D
And a F-R-E-D Fred yeah

I'm in love with a girl named Fred
A clever clownish wit
When she does her funny pantomime
Your sides are sure to split

Ha ha ha ha
Ho ho ho ho
Ha ha ha ha ho

Bravo, bravo, bravissimo
Bravo, bravissimo

Fill the bowl to overflowing
Raise the goblet high
With an F and an R and an E and a D and a F-R-E-D Fred

I'm in love with a girl
He's in love with a girl
Named F - R - E - D
Fred
