Not While I'm Around

Donny Osmond

Compositor: Stephen Sondheim

Nothing's gonna harm you,
not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you,
no sir, not while I'm around.

Demons
are prowling
everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send 'em howling,
I don't care, I got ways.

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry,
whistle, I'll be there.

Demons'll charm you
with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

Not to worry, not to worry,
I may not be smart
but I ain't dumb.
I can do it, put me to it,
Show me something
I can overcome.
Not to worry, ma'am...

Being close and being clever
Ain't like being true
I don't need to,
I would never hide
a thing from you,
Like some...

Nothing's gonna harm you,
not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you,
darlin',
Not while I'm around...

Demons'll charm you
with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing's gonna harm you,
Not while I'm around
