Nope, it's from Annie Get Your Gun not Guys and Dolls. I should know,
I've done both of 'em. *G* Anyways, here are the lyrics to Anything You
Can Do from Annie Get Your Gun.
ANYTHING YOU CAN DO by Irving Berlin
Annie: I'm superior, you're inferior
I'm the big attraction, You're the small
I'm the major one, you're the minor one
I can beat you shootin' that's not all....
Anything You Can Do, I can do better
I can do anything better than you
Frank: No you can't
Annie: Yes I can
Frank: No you can't
Annie: Yes I can
Frank: No you can't
Annie: Yes I can, yes I can!
Anything you can be, I can be greater
Sooner of later, I'm great than you
Frank: No, you're not
Annie: Yes, I am
Frank: No, you're not
Annie: Yes, I am
Frank: No, you're not
Annie: Yes, I am, yes I am!
Frank: I can shoot a partridge with a single cartridge
Annie: I can get a sparrow with a bow and arrow
Frank: I can do most anything
Annie: Can you bake a pie?
Frank: (spoken) No.
Annie: Neither can I
Anything you can sing, I can sing louder
I can sing anything louder than you
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!!
Anything you can buy, I can buy cheaper
I can buy anything cheaper than you
Frank: Fifty cents
Annie: Forty cents
Frank: Thirty cents
Annie: Twenty cents
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!
Anything you can dig, I can dig deeper
I can dig anything deeper than you
Frank: Thirty feet
Annie: Forty feet
Frank: Fifty feet
Annie: Sixty feet
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!
Frank: I can drink my liquor faster than a flicker
Annie: I can do it quicker and get even sicker
Frank: I can live on break and cheese
Annie: And only on that?
Frank: (spoken) Yep!
Annie: So can a rat!
Any note you can reach, I can go higher
I can sing anything higher than you
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!!
Anything you can lick, I can lick faster
I can lick anyone faster than you
Frank: With your fists?
Annie: With my feet
Frank: With your feet??
Annie: With and axe
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can
Any school where you went, I could be master
I could be master much faster than you
Frank: Can you spell?
Annie: No, I can't
Frank: Can you add?
Annie: No, I can't
Frank: Can you teach?
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!
Frank: I could be a racer, quite a steeple chaser
Annie: I can jump a hurdle, even with my girdle
Frank: I can open any safe
Annie: Without being caught?
Frank: Yep!
Annie: That's what I though
Any note you can hold I can hold longer
I can hold any note longer than you
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can
Frank: No, you can't
Annie: Yes, I can, yes, I can!!
Whew! I never realized what a long song that was!! My fingers are
tired.

Sorry, typo. It's supposed to be 'bread and cheese' not 'break and
cheese.'
> Frank: I can open any safe

'Nother typo, that's supposed to be 'thought' not 'though'.
