Contours. First I look at the purse. Nicholas brothers.

The Nicholas brothers dance.

Contours 'First I look at the purse' lyrics:

What does every man look at first?

Some fellas look at the eyes
Some fellas look at the nose
Some fellas look at the size
Some fellas look at the clothes

I don't care if her eyes are red
I don't care if her nose is long
I don't care if she's underfed
I don't care if her clothes are wrong
Why? 'cause first I look at the purse!

Some fellas look at the smile they wear
Some fellas look at the legs that's all
Some fellas look at the style of their hair
Some fellas want the waist to be small.

I don't care if the teeth are big
I don't care if the legs are thin
I don't care if her hair is a wig
Why waste time lookin' at the waistline?
Why? 'cause first I look at the purse!

A woman can be as fine as can be,
with kisses sweet as honey
But that don't mean a thing to me
If she ain't got no money
'cause if the purse is fat....that's where it's at.

Some fellas look at the way they walk
The way they swing and sway
Some fellas like the way they talk
and dig the things they say.

But I don't care if she wobbles like a duck
and talks with a lisp
I still think I'm in good luck
if the dollar bills are crisp
Why?..cause first I look at the purse!

First I look at the purse!
Tried to tell you.
yeah yeah yeah
kisses can be sweet as honey
But I want me some money
She can be covered with a rash
Long as she's got some cash.
I want a big fine car
I don't want one suit
Like a Hollywood star.

My favourite song of all time. I qualify this, with all the great songs I've loved, by remembering how I felt at first hearing. Filthy sax, gutsy beat and bad boy lyrics (she can be covered with a rash.. long as she's got some cash). Nothing changes in life does it?.... pass the sugar free Tiramisu.

Just great. wonderful arrangement to the over the top Nicholas Brothers masterful performance.

They don't make'em like that anymore.

[Pipsocle]

I only just realized that this song is about judging women by their money, not judging them by the fashion of their purses. I'm a bit slow...

Brilliant song. Great lyrics...Smokey Robinson and Bobby Rogers I think.

These guys must have had an operation or something to do that routine on the stairwell. It hurts me just watching it. I agree with some of the comments. Real good mixing of two terrific performances.
