Lorelei:
Don't you understand
That I've been true to you, but I'm in demand
Because gentlemen prefer blondes like me?
Gus:
But what am I to do
If they go on preferring you?
Lorelei:
They buy me champagne
Because they say that they admire my brain
Because gentlemen prefer blondes like me
Gus:
Do they discuss romance
Or is the subject high finance?
Lorelei:
They'd take me out dancing
Cross my heart, I wasn't in the mood
But after all, when they'd call
I just couldn't be rude
Gus:
Well, baby, I'm resigned
To having you for life, but no peace of mind
Because gentlemen prefer blondes
But the only blonde that I prefer is you
