My Fair Lady, Act I Scene 4: With a Little Bit of Luck (Reprise)

Lyrics: Alan Jay Lerner Music: Frederick Loewe "Doolittle (sings) A man was made to help support his children, Which is the right and proper thing to do. A man was made to help support his children, but, With a little bit of luck, With a little bit of luck, They’ll go out and start supporting you! All – Jamie, Harry, and Chorus (SATB) (sing) With a little bit, with a little bit, With a little bit of luck, They’ll work for you. He doesn’t have a tuppence in his pocket; The poorest bloke you’ll ever hope to meet. He doesn’t have a tuppence in his pocket, but, With a little bit of luck, With a little bit of luck, He’ll be movin’ up to easy street. With a little bit, with a little bit, With a little bit of luck, He’s movin’ up. With a little bit, with a little bit, With a little bit of bloomin’ luck! Dance (Doolittle dances with the crowd. At end of dance, Alfie gets birdcage and fan from Harry and Jamie and crosses with the crowd following.) All With a little bit, with a little bit, With a little bit of bloomin’ luck!"
