music by Frederick Loewe, lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner
part of the musical "Gigi"
recorded by Maurice Chevalier

Thank heaven for little girls
For little girls get bigger every day!
Thank heaven for little girls
They grow up in the most delightful way!

Those little eyes
So helpless and appealing
One day will flash
And send you crashin' thru the ceilin'

Thank heaven for little girls
Thank heaven for them all,
No matter where no matter who
For without them, what would little boys do?

Thank heaven...
Thank heaven...
Thank heaven for little girls!
