She can't help it, the girl can't help it
She can't help it, the girl can't help it


If she walks by, the men folks get engrossed
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
If she winks an eye, the bread slice turn to toast
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
If she got a lot of what they call the most
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)


The girl can't help it, she was born to please
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
And if she's got a figure made to squeeze
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
Won't you kindly be aware, the girl can't help it
(The girl can't help it)


If she mesmerizes every mother's son
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
If she's smiling, beefsteak become well done
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
She make grandpa feel like twenty-one
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)

The girl can't help it, she was born to please
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
And if I go to her on bended knee
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
Won't you kindly be aware, that I can't help it
(I can't help it)


Because I'm hoping, obviously
That some day, the answer would be
The girl can't help it, and she's in love with me
(She can't help it, the girl can't help it)
Ow

The Girl Can't Help It
1956年製作のアメリカ映画
「女はそれを我慢できない」

のタイトル曲


ジェーン・マンスフィールドの

アイドル映画で、
ロックンロール全盛期の

コメディ映画。

ビスタ・サイズ白黒が一般的だった
ロックンロール映画の中で
初めてワイド・スクリーン(シネマスコープ)、
フルカラーで撮影された映画。
そのため、作中でも
スタンダード・サイズ、白黒の場面から、
画面の両端が広がり、
白黒からカラーになるという演出が
加えられている。

ビートルズはメンバー全員
リバプールで見て
影響を受けたと絶賛し、
「ザ・ビートルズ・アンソロジー」で
引用されている。

All around the world
Rock and roll is all they play
All around the world
Rock and roll is all they play
You can hear those jukebox jumpin'
All night and all through the day

All the flat top cats
With their rock & roll queens
Just a rockin' & rollin'
In their red and blue jeans

All around the world
Rock and roll is here to stay
You can hear those jukebox jumpin'
All night and all through the day

Ain't never no time for romance
They only wanna dance
The people all holla when they hit that floor
Go, cat, go

All around the world
Rock and roll is here to stay
You can hear those jukebox jumpin'
All night and all through the day

They do the Baha
The Texas hop
Shim sham shimmy
And they never, never stop

All around the world
Rock and roll is here to stay
You can hear those jukebox jumpin'
All night and all through the day

Never no time for romance
They only wanna dance
The people all holla when they hit that floor
Go, cat, go

All around the world
Rock and roll is here to stay
You can hear those jukebox jumpin'
All night and all through the day
