It is surprising, Kristen, how some musicals fade into the background. I agree with you that this particular movie hasn't had the applause it deserves. The song and dance numbers are of quality and the stars shine. Thank you for highlighting this. Appreciated!
Maybe you'll never be the love of my life, Maybe I'm not the boy of you dreams, But isn't it kinda fun to look in each others eyes, Swapping romantic gleams! Maybe you're not the girl to have and to hold, Maybe I'm not a boy who would stay, But isn't it kinda fun carousing around the town Dancing the night away! Isn't it kinda fun holding hands, According to a sweet and corny custom. Isn't it kinda fun makin' vows, Admitting that we both intend to bust 'em! Maybe we're out for laughs, a girl and a boy Kiddin' across a table for two! But haven't you got a hunch that this is the real McCoy, And all the things we tell each other are true? Oh, isn't it kinda fun holding hands, According to a sweet and corny custom. Isn't it kinda fun makin' vows, Admitting that we both intend to bust 'em! Maybe we're out for laughs, a girl and a boy Kiddin' across a table for two! But haven't you got a hunch that this is the real McCoy, And all the things we tell each other are true?
So beautiful. Criminally underrated film
This musical,and especially this song is underrated.

Popular music today has lost the charm and integrity of this amazing, irreplaceable era.
Lovely song, sung by 2 great singers of the day. 👍
This song was stuck in my mind so I had to look it up. I just saw this movie last night.
Rodgers and Hammerstein always made great films! My fave is the sound of music!
But this and Oklahoma are great, too
Wowser, just realized that it's Miss Adelaide. Vivian Blaine.
Was in a production of "Guys and Dolls" my junior year in high school. Played Nicely. Love that musical and "State Fair".
Such a wonderful song
The only problem I have with this movie is the fact that he cheated on his girlfriend while he was at the fair.
And then went back to her in the end like nothing ever happened!
Right!
Maybe you'll never be the love of my life,
Maybe I'm not the boy of you dreams,
But isn't it kinda fun to look in each others eyes,
Swapping romantic gleams!
Maybe you're not the girl to have and to hold,
Maybe I'm not a boy who would stay,
But isn't it kinda fun carousing around the town
Dancing the night away!
Isn't it kinda fun holding hands,
According to a sweet and corny custom.
Isn't it kinda fun makin' vows,
Admitting that we both intend to bust 'em!
Maybe we're out for laughs, a girl and a boy
Kiddin' across a table for two!
But haven't you got a hunch that this is the real McCoy,
And all the things we tell each other are true?
