[cora hoover hooper]
everyone hates me, yes, yes
being the mayoress, yes
all of the peasants
throw rocks in my presence
which causes me nervous
distress, yes

(wailing)
ooooooh….

me and my town, battered about
everyone in it would like to get out
me and my town
we just wanna be loved!

stores are for rent, theaters are dark
gr-ss on the sidewalks, but not in the park
me and my town, we just want to be loved

the people are starving
so they sleep the day through
my poor little people
what can they do?

[pageboys]
boo!

[cora hoover hooper]
who asked you?

come on the train, come on the bus
somebody, please buy a ticket to us
hurry on down
we need a little renown!
love me
love my town

ooooh, oooooohhhhhh, ooooooooooohhhhhhhh!

probably lynch me, if they had the strength!
but me and my town
me and my town
we just want to be loved!

[pageboys]
we just want to be loved!

[cora hoover hooper]

[pageboys]
a friendship is lovely, and a courtship sublime
but give her a township—

[cora hoover hooper]
—township, every time!
what’ll we do, me and my town?
gotta do something, or we’re gonna drown

[all]
give me my coat!
give me my crown!
gimme, gimme a boat and hurry on down

[cora hoover hooper]
show me how much you think—

[pageboys]
yeah!

[cora hoover hooper]
of me

[all]
love me!
love my town!
