Текст песни A Picture Of Me Without You (Cole Porter) с переводом

From being merely a necessary luxury

And someone sympathetic to have about

Why, now you’re nearly a luxurious necessity

I couldn’t imagine ever living without

I suppose I’d somehow struggle through

But I’d hate to picture myself without you

Picture Henry Ford without a car

Picture heaven’s firmament without a star

Picture Fritzy Kreisler without a fiddle

Picture poor Philadelphia without a Biddle

Picture good cigars without Havana

Picture Huey Long without Louisiana

Mix 'em all together, and what have you got?

Just a picture of me without you

Picture H. G. Wells without a brain

Picture Av’rell Harriman without a train

Picture Tintern Abbey without a cloister

Picture Billy the Oysterman without an oyster

Picture Central Park without a sailor

Picture Mister Lord minus Mister Taylor

Mix 'em all together, and what have you got?

Just a picture of me without you

Picture Ogden Nash without a rhyme

Picture Mister Bulova without the time

Picture Staten Island without a ferry

Picture little George Washington without a cherry

Picture brother Cain without his Abel

Picture Clifton Webb minus Mother Mabel

Mix 'em all together, and what have you got?

Just a picture of me without you

Picture Paul Revere without a horse

Picture love in Hollywood without divorce

Picture Barbara Hutton without a nickel

Picture poor Mister Heinz, my dear, without a pickle

Picture City Hall without boondogglin'

Picture Sunday tea minus Father Coughlin

Mix 'em all together and what have you got?

Just a picture of me without you

Picture Lily Pons without a throat

Picture Harold Vanderbilt without a boat

Picture Billy Sunday without a sinner

Picture dear Missus Corrigan without a dinner

Picture Hamlet’s ghost without a darkness

Picture Mother Yale minus Father Harkness

Mix 'em all together and what have you got?

Just a picture of me without you!
