Текст песни If I Only Had the Nerve - Judy Garland , Jack Haley , Ray Bolger , Lorraine Bridges, Betty Rome and Carol Tevis , Charles Irwin

Yeh, it's sad, believe me, Missy, When you're born to be a sissy
Without the vim and verve.
But I could show my prowess, be a lion not a mou-ess
If I only had the nerve.
I'm afraid there's no denyin' I'm just a dandelion,
A fate I don't deserve.
I'd be brave as a blizzard...
Tin Man
I'd be gentle as a lizard...
Scarecrow
I'd be clever as a gizzard...
Dorothy
If the Wizard is a Wizard who will serve.
Scarecrow
Then I'm sure to get a brain,
Tin Man
A heart,
Dorothy
A home,
Lion
The nerve!
