\"I Get a Kick Out of You\" is a song by Cole Porter, originally featured in the Broadway musical Anything Goes and the movie of the same name.

Originally sung by Ethel Merman, it has been covered by performers including Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Peggy Lee, Marlene Dietrich, Cesare Siepi, Dinah Washington, Bobby Short, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Mary Martin, Anita O`Day, Rosemary Clooney, Margaret Whiting, Django Reinhardt, Gary Shearston, Jamie Cullum, The Living End, Dolly Parton, Dwele, Joan Morris, Shirley Bassey, The Gutter Twins and Lisa Ekdahl.

Alterations to the song

The lyrics were first altered shortly after being written. The last verse originally went as follows:

I get no kick in a plane
I shouldn't care for those nights in the air
That the fair Mrs. Lindbergh goes through
But I get a kick out of you.

After the Lindbergh kidnapping, Porter changed the second and third lines to:

Flying too high with some guy in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do

In the 1936 movie version, alternative lyrics in the second verse were provided to replace a reference to the drug cocaine, which were not allowed due to the Hays Code.

The original verse goes as follows:

Some get a kick from cocaine
I'm sure that if
I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrifically, too
Yet, I get a kick out of you

Porter changed the first line to:

Some like the perfume in Spain

One alternative version popularised by Alyson Ottaway changes the verse to:

Some like the bop-type refrain
I'm sure that if
I heard even one riff
It would bore me terrifically, too
Yet, I get a kick out of you

Sinatra recorded both post-Hays versions: the first in 1953 and the second in 1962. On a recording live in Paris in 1962, Sinatra sings the altered version with the first line as Some like the perfume from Spain. Other Porter-approved substitutes include \"whiff of Guerlain.\" All three of the above alternatives are mentioned in the liner notes to Joan Morris and William Bolcom's CD, \"Night and Day,\" but on the recording, Morris sings the original second verse.
