This performance of 'But Not For Me' by Judy Garland is in the film 'Girl Crazy' with Mickey Rooney, 1943. 'Girl Crazy' was the last of the Mickey/Judy "backyard musicals". Previous Mickey/Judy musicals of this genre included 'Babes in Arms'(1939), 'Strike Up the Band' (1940) and 'Babes on Broadway'(1941).
'But Not For Me'was written by Ira Gershwin, music by George Gershwin in 1930.
Old Man Sunshine listen, you
Never tell me Dreams Come True
Just try it and I'll start a riot.
Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare
Ever tell me he will care
I'm certain it's the final curtain.
I never want to hear
From any cheerful Polyannas,
Who tell you fate supplies a mate
It's all bananas.
They're writing songs of love,
But not for me
A lucky star's above,
But not for me
With love to lead the way,
I've found more skies of gray
Than any Russian play could guarantee.
I was a fool to fall and get that way
Heigh ho alas And also lackaday
Although I can't dismiss
The memory of his kiss
I guess he's not for me.
