My Defenses Are Down (annie Get Your Gun) Lyrics - Ah, Men! The Boys Of Broadway - Betty Buckley

I've had my way with so many girls 

An' was lots of fun. 

My scheme was to know many girls 

To keep me safe from one 

I find it can be done. 

My defenses are down 

She's broken my resistance 

And I don't know where I am 

I went into the fight like a lion 

But I came out like a lamb. 

My defenses are down 

She's got me where she wants me 

And I can't escape no how 

I could speak to my heart when it wakened 

But my heart won't listen now. 

Like a toothless, clawless tiger, 

Like an organ-grinder's bear, 

Like a knight without his armor, 

Like Samson without his hair. 

My defenses are down 

I might as well surrender 

For the battle can't be won. 

But I must confess that I like it, 

So there's nothing to be done. 

Yes, I must confess that I like it 

Being miserable's gonna be fun
