To Keep My Love Alive

To Keep My Love Alive

"To Keep My Love Alive" is a 1943 popular song composed by Richard Rodgers, with lyrics by Lorenz Hart for the musical "A Connecticut Yankee" (1927), where it was introduced by Vivienne Segal. It was written especially for Segal's appearance in the the 1943 revival of "A Connecticut Yankee." ( [http://www.rnh.com/links/ctyankee/ctbackground.html R&H Theatricals background] )

The song outlines the many ways the singer "bumped off" her husbands in order to avoid being unfaithful to any of them. Some of her methods include arsenical poisoning, defenestration, stabbing, and appendectomy.
