Somewhere Over The Rainbow Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high, There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby. Somewhere, over the rainbow, skies are blue, And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true. Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me. Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops, That's where you'll find me. Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow, Why then - oh, why can't I? Someday I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me. Where troubles melt like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops, That's where you'll find me. Somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow, Why then - oh, why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why can't I? If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh, why can't I? |

Never could carry a tune, never knew where to start You came along when everything was wrong and put a song in my heart Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody It haunted me from the start Something inside of me started a symphony Zing! Went the strings of my heart'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing About a nest set apart All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony Zing! Went the strings of my heartYour eyes made skies seem blue again What else could I do again But keep ing through and through "I love you, love you"I still recall the thrill, guess I always will I hope 'twill never depart Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody devine Zing! Went the strings of my heartDear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody It haunted me from the start Something inside of me started a symphony Zing! Went the strings of my heart'Twas like a breath of spring, I heard a robin sing About a nest set apart All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony Zing! Went the strings of my heartYour eyes made skies seem blue again What else could I do again? But keep ing through and through "I love you, love you"I still recall the thrill, I guess I always will I hope 'twill never depart Dear, with your lips to mine, a rhapsody devine Zing! Oh, Oh, Oh went the strings of my heart |

Our love affair was meant to be
It's me for you dear, and you for me We'll fuss, we'll quarrel and tears start to brew But after the tears our love will smile through I'm sure that I could never hide The thrill I get when you're by my side And when we're older we'll proudly declare Wasn't ours a lovely love affair Our love affair was meant to be It's me for you dear, and you for me We'll fuss, we'll quarrel and tears start to brew But after the tears our love will smile through I'm sure that I could never hide The thrill I get when you're by my side And when we're older we'll proudly declare Wasn't ours a lovely love affair |

I'm nobody's baby
I wonder why Each night and day I pray the Lord up above Please send me down somebody to love But nobody wants me I'm blue somehow Won't someone hear my plea and take a chance with me Because I'm nobody's baby now Nobody's baby And I've got to know the reason why Last week I was walking down the street and met a boy and I said "Hey! Maybe I was meant for you" But he only shook his head and said "Goodbye" He kept on walking down the avenue Nobody wants me I'm mighty blue somehow Won't someone hear my plea and take a chance with me Because I'm nobody's baby now |

It's a great day for the Irish, it's a great day for fair!
The sidewalks of New York are thick with blarney For shure you'd think New York was Old Kilarney! It's a great day for the Shamrock, for the flags in full array We're feeling so inspirish, shure because for all the Irish It's a great, great day! It's a great day for the Irish, it's a great day for fair! Begosh, there's not a cop to stop a raiding Begorra all the cops are out parading! It's a great day for the Shamrock, for the flags in full aray And as we go a swinging, ev'ry Irish heart is singing It's a great, great day! |

When a girl meets boy,
Life can be a joy, But the note they end on, Will depend on little pleasures they will share, So let us compare. I like New York in June, how about you? I like a Gershwin tune, how about you? I love a fireside when a storm is due. I like potato chips, moonlight and motor trips, How about you? I'm mad about good books, can't get my fill, And Franklin Roosevelt's looks give me a thrill. Holding hands at the movie show, When all the lights are low May not be new, but I like it, How about you? I like Jack Benny's jokes, To a degree. I love the common folks, That includes me. I like to window shop on 5th Avenue, I like banana splits, late supper at the Ritz, How about you? I love to dream of fame, maybe I'll shine, I'd love to see your name right beside mine. I can see we're in harmony, Looks like we both agree On what to do, And I like it, how about you? I'm so delighted I've ignited the spark within you. Let me continue to make it burn. With you I will be like a Trilby, so let's not dally. Come on Svengali, I've lots to learn. When you're arisin', start exercisin' daily. For example, just a sample? Bend and touch the floor fifty times or more. Ha! A fine start to be a Bernhardt! A dictionary's necessary but not for talking, It's used for walking the Ziegfeld way. Is this okay? That's the trick, you're catching on quickly. Should I take a bow? A-ho! Let me show you how! Just like partners on the stage. If you can use a partner, I'm the right age. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By LANE, BURTON/FREED, RALPH <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

I hear tell there's a stranger in the Jones household
(Yes siree, yes siree) That's what I'm told I hear tell there's a new arrival six days old (Yes siree, yes siree) Worth his weight in gold Come right in and meet the son Christening's done, time to have some fun (Yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) Yes siree, yes siree, it's a big holiday everywhere For the Jones family has a brand new heir He's the joy heaven sent and they proudly present Mister Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones When he grows up he never will stray With a name like the one that he's got today As he walks down the street folks will say "Pleased to meet, Mister Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones" What a smile and how he shows it He'll keep happy all day long What a name, I bet he knows it With that handle how can he go wrong? And the folks in the town all agree He'll be famous, as famous as he can be How can he be a dud or a stick in the mud When he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones? (Yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) 'Cause he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones |

My mama done tol' me, when I was in pigtails
My mama done tol' me, " Hon, a man's gonna sweet talk" And give ya the big eye, but when the sweet talkin's done A man is a two-face, A worrisome thing who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night Now the rain's a-fallin', hear the train's a-callin, "Whooee!" (My mama done tol' me) Hear dat lonesome whistle blowin' 'cross the trestle, "Whooee!" (My mama done tol' me) A-whooee-ah-whooee ol' clickety-clack's a-echoin' back The blues in the night The evenin' breeze'll start the trees to cryin' And the moon'll hide it's light When you get the blues in the night Take my word, the mockingbird'll sing the saddest kind of song He knows things are wrong, and he's right From Natchez to Mobile, from Memphis to St. Joe, wherever the four winds blow I been in some big towns an' heard me some big talk, but there is one thing I know A man is a two-face, a worrisome thing who'll leave ya to sing the blues in the night My mama was right, there's blues in the night |

Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you!
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you! Just one look at you My heart grew tipsy in me, You and you alone Bring out the Gypsy in me! I love all, the many charms about you! Above all, I want my arms about you! Don't be a naughty baby, Come to papa, come to papa, do! My sweet embraceable you! |

Old man sunshine, listen you
Never tell me dreams come true Just try it, and I'll start a riot Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare Ever tell me he will care I'm certain, it's the final curtain I never want to hear from any cheerful Pollyannas Who tells you fate supplies a mate It's all bananas They're writing songs of love - but not for me A lucky star's above - but not for me With love to lead the way I've found more skies of gray Than any Russian play - could guarantee I was a fool to fall - and get that way Hi ho alas and also lackaday Although I can't dismiss The memory of his kiss I guess he's not for me Although I can't dismiss The memory of his kiss I guess he's not for me |

Days can be sunny, with never a sigh
Don't need what money can buy Birds in the trees sing their day full of song Why shouldn't we sing along? I'm chipper all the day, happy with my lot How do I get that way, look at what I've got I got rhythm, I got music I got my man, who could ask for anything more I got daisys in green pastures I got my man, who could ask for anything more Old man trouble, I don't mind him You won't find him 'round my door I got starlight, I got sweet dreams I got my man, who could ask for anything more Who could ask for anything more I got rhythm, I got music I got my man, who could ask for anything more I got daisys in green pastures I got my man, who could ask for anything more Old man trouble, I don't mind him You won't find him hangin' 'round my front or back door Who could ask for anything more Who could ask for anything more |

The moment I saw him smile
I knew he was just my style My only regret is we've never met Though I dream of him all the while But he doesn't know I exist No matter how I may persist So it's clear to see there's no hope for me Though I live at fifty-one-thirty-five Kensington Avenue And he lives at fifty-one-thirty-three How can I ignore the boy next door I love him more than I can say Doesn't try to please me Doesn't even tease me And he never sees me glance his way And though I'm heart-sore, the boy next door Affection for me won't display I just adore him So I can't ignore him The boy next door I just adore him So I can't ignore him The boy next door |

With her high starched collar and her high topped shoes
And her hair piled high upon her head She went to find a jolly hour on the trolley And she found my heart instead With my light brown derby and my bright green tie I was quite the lonesomest of men I started to yen so I counted to ten Then I counted to ten again Clang, clang, clang went the trolley Ding, ding, ding went the bell Zing, zing, zing went my heart strings For the moment I saw her I fell Chug, chug, chug went the motor Thump, thump, thump went the brake Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings When she smiled I could feel the car shake I tipped my hat, I took a seat I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet "Say, what's your name?", I lost my breath She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer Pop, pop, pop went the wheels Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings As she started to go then I started to know how it feels When the universe reels I tipped my hat, I took a seat I said I hoped I hadn't stepped upon her feet I asked her name, then lost my breath She looked so lovely that it scared me half to death Oh, buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer Pop, pop, pop went the wheels Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings As she started to leave I took hold of her sleeve with my hand And as if it were planned She stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand With her hand holding mine to the end of the line End of the line The end of the line |

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light From now on, our troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yuletide gay From now on, our troubles will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow So hang a shining star upon the highest bough And have yourself a merry little Christmas now Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light From now on, our troubles will be out of sight Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the Yuletide gay From now on, our troubles will be miles away Here we are as in olden days Happy golden days of yore Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more Through the years we all will be together If the fates allow So hang a shining star upon the highest bough And have yourself a merry little Christmas now |

Love can be a moment's madness
Love can be insane Love can be a life of sadness and pain Love can be a summer shower Love can be the sun Love can be two hearts that flower as one It can be, fine and free But that kind Is not so very easy to find Love can be a dying ember Love can be a flame Love pledged in September May be dead in December You may not even remember it came Love can be a joy forever Or an empty name Love is almost never ever the same Love can be an evil-doer Love can be a fog Love can make you feel like you were a dog Love can be a snow-capped mountain Love can be the truth Love can be an endless fountain of youth It can be ecstasy But it's true It doesn't always happen to you Love can be a four-score failure Love can bring you fame Love fresh as the morning May be wild when it's 'borning And then without any warning, it's tame Oh love can be a sweet endeavor Or a dirty shame Love is almost never ever, the same! |
