FROM: The King and I
SUNG BY: Deborah Kerr (Anna Leonowens)
WRITTEN BY: R. Rodgers/O. Hammerstein II



It's a very ancient saying
But a true and honest thought
That if you become a teacher
By your pupils you'll be taught.
As a teacher I've been learning,
You'll forgive me if I boast,
And I've now become an expert
On the subject I like most,
Getting to know you.
Getting to know you, getting to know all about you,
Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me,
Getting to know you, putting it my way but nicely,
You are precisely my cup of tea,
Getting to know you, getting to feel free and easy,
When I am with you, getting to know what to say,
Haven't you noticed suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you,
Day by day.
Getting to know you, getting to know all about you,
Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me,
Getting to know you, putting it my way but nicely,
You are precisely my cup of tea,
Getting to know you, getting to feel free and easy,
When I am with you, getting to know what to say,
Haven't you noticed suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you,
Day by day.
Getting to know you, getting to know all about you,
Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me,
Getting to know you, putting it my way but nicely,
You are precisely my cup of tea,
Getting to know you, getting to feel free and easy,
When I am with you, getting to know what to say,
Haven't you noticed suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you,
Day by day.
