Composer(s): Jerry Herman
Performer(s): Eddie Fisher
and various other artists



Young Patrick:
You're my best girl and nothing you do is wrong
I'm proud you belong to me
And if a day is rough for me
Having you there's enough for me
And if someday another girl comes along
It won't take her long to see
That I'll still be found, just hanging around
My best girl

Mame:
You're my best beau, you're handsome and brave and strong
There's nothing we two can't face
If you're with me, whatever comes
We'll see that trouble never comes
And if someday another beau comes along
Determined to take your place
I hope he's resigned to falling behind
My best beau

Mame And young Patrick:
And if someday when everything turns out wrong
You're through with the human race
Come running to me

Mame:
For I'll always be
Your best girl...

Young Patrick:
My best girl!

Reprise:
Older Patrick:
You're my best girl and nothing you do is wrong
I'm proud you belong to me
And if a day is rough for me
Having you there's enough for me
And if someday when everything turns out wrong
You're through with the human race
Come running to me
For you'll always be
My best girl!
