1.Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart

Lyrics:James F.Hanley
Music:James F.Hanley


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, heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart

Your eyes made skies blue again
What else could I do again
Keep repeating through again
'I love you, love you'

I still recall the thrill, guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart


Your eyes made skies blue again
What else could I do again?
Keep repeating through again
'I love you, I do love you'

I still recall the thrill, I guess that I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart


2.I'm Nobody's Baby

Written:Milton Ager/Lester Santly/Benny Davis

I woke up this morning and the sun was shining,
but I didn't see it.
Think I drank my orange juice, but I don't know,
I wouldn't guarantee it.
Wore my yellow dress - or was it blue?
Oh what's the use, I don't remember.
Is it Monday, is it Tuesday,
is it June or is it still December?
Sat beside my window, watched the couples strolling by
Felt so sorry for myself I couldn't even cry.
Finally I pulled the shade,
I couldn't stand the gaff.
So I sat down and wrote my epitaph.

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.

Believe me...

No, Nobody's baby,
and I've got to know the reason why.
Last week I was walkin' down the street
and met a boy and I said
'Hey, maybe I was meant for you'.
But he only tipped his hat
and shook his head,
kept on walkin' down the avenue.

Oh, nobody wants me,
I'm mighty blue somehow.
Won't someone hear my plea
and take a little chance with me?
Because I'm no-nobody's baby.
I'm blue somehow.
Won't someone hear my plea
and take a chance with me?
There's no denyin' I'm cryin',
I'm lonesome on my own-some.
I don't mean maybe,
I'm nobody's baby!


3.Over the Rainbow

Lyrics:E.Y.'Yip'Harburg
Music:Harold Arlen

Someplace where there isn't any trouble...
...do you suppose there is such a place, Toto?
There must be. It's not a place you can get to
by a boat or a train. It's far, far away...
Behind the moon
Beyond the rain

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?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow,
Why oh why can't I?


4.Embraceable You

Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:George Gershwin

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.

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.


5.I'm Always Chasing Rainbows

Written:Joseph Mccarthy/Harry Carroll

At the end of the rainbow there's happiness,
And to find it often I've tried,
But my life is a race, just a wild goose chase,
And my dreams have all been denied.
Why have I always been a failure?
What can the reason be?
I wonder if the world's to blame,
I wonder if it could be me.

Chorus:
I'm always chasing rainbows,
Watching clouds drifting by,
My schemes are just like all my dreams,
Ending in the sky.
Some fellows look and find the sunshine,
I always look and find the rain.
Some fellows make a winning sometime,
But I never even make a gain, believe me,
I'm always chasing rainbows,
Waiting to find a little bluebird in vain.


6.In Between

Lyrics:Roger Edens
Music:Roger Edens

Hold the light up to me
Get underneath my skin
I feel a little undefined
But I want to let you in
And I listen to the messages
The endless train of thought
But now it feels like I'm returning
Most everything I bought

Some say... it's all coming to an end
Some fool themselves with thoughts of new beginnings
It makes me wonder what they believe
'Cause we're in between
Sometimes it's just better to get on with it
Sometimes, lord knows, you gotta get off
There's no use holding on to what I mean
'Cause I'm in between
No use wondering what I mean

Saints and sinners, losers, winners
Masters and their slaves
The more you hide one or the other
The earlier your grave
The triumph and the tragedy
The endless bright parade
I know that most of us are innocent
But some should be afraid

'Cause they say we're all coming to an end
They fool themselves with thoughts of new beginnings
Well I don't buy it... it's just too clean
'Cause we're in between
Sometimes it's just better to get on with it
Sometimes, lord knows, you gotta get off
No use holding on to what I mean
'Cause I'm in between
No use wondering what I mean
'Cause I'm in between
Are you still wondering what I mean

Hold the light up to me... get underneath my skin
Humming like the wind
I feel a little undefined... I'm sorry if I seem...
So in between
It's so much better when you run your fingers through my hair
Humming like the air
I wish that I could hold you... I'm sorry if I seem...
So in between


7.Stompin' At The Savoy

Lyrics:Andy Razaf
Music:Benny Goodman/Chick Webb/Edgar Sampson

Savoy, the home of sweet romance,
Savoy, it wins you with a glance,
Savoy, gives happy feet a chance to dance.

Your old form just like a clinging vine,
Your lips so warm and sweet as wine,
Your cheek so soft and close to mine, divine.

How my heart is singing,
While the band is swinging,
I'm never tired of romping,
And stomping with you at the Savoy.
What joy - a perfect holiday,
Savoy, where we can glide and sway,
Savoy, let me stomp away with you;

The home of sweet romance,
It wins you at a glance,
Gives happy feet a chance to dance.
Just like a clinging vine,
So soft and sweet as wine,
So soft and close to mine, divine.

How my heart is singing,
While the band is swinging,
I'm never, never, never tired of romping,
And stomping with you at the Savoy.
What joy - a perfect holiday,
Savoy, where we can glide and sway,
Savoy, let me stomp away with you.


8.Everybody Sing

Lyrics:Arthur Freed
Music:Nacio Herb Brown

When the whole world seems wrong
just learn the words of a simple song,
of blue skies above,
be a troubadour and all is love.

When April showers stray
the silver lining will come they say,
and singin' in the rain's the thing
that those happy days again will bring.

So, everybody sing, everybody sing!
Let the sound of your voice turn winter to spring.
Everybody's gay, everybody's gay!
Oh, say can't you hear the orchestra play?

Everybody sing, everybody start!
You can't go wrong with a song in your heart.
Everybody sing, get into the swing,
get happy, everybody sing.

Yeah, everybody sing, come on now, everybody sing!
Let the sound of your voice turn winter to spring.
Everybody's gay, everybody's gay!
Oh, say can't you hear la-da-de-oo-de-lay-de-lay-o?

Everybody sing, everybody start.
You can't go wrong with a song in your heart.
Everybody sing, come on now get into that swing
Go Do Re Mi Fa So La Si Do
Do Re Mi Fa So La Si Do
Everybody sing, everybody sing!
Let the sound of your voice turn winter to spring.

Sing before breakfast, help the birdies along.
Before you have your buttered toast, have a song.
Sing before breakfast, never quiet a thing.
Before you eat your shredded wheat, sing, sing, sing!

Sing a song of sixpence, pocket full of rye
four and twenty blackbirds baked into a pie.
When the pie was opened and set before the king,
four and twenty blackbirds started into sing.

Sing a melody of love, a song will win your lady fair.
Sing a song that mentions love and you will
yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi.

Sing a song of cheer again,
the skies above will be clear again,
those happy days are here again,
sing a song of cheer again.

If you worry, if you fret, if you're getting deep in debt,
let your frown turn summerset, get yourself a good quartet.

In the evening by the moonlight
you can hear those darkies singin'.

Sing good, sing bad,
Sing loud, sing soft,
Sing sweet, sing hot,
Sing!

Everybody sing, everybody sing!
Let the sound of your voice turn winter to spring.
Everybody's gay, everybody's gay!
Oh, say can't you hear la-da-de-oo-de-lay-de-lay-o?
Everybody sing, everybody start.
You can't go wrong with a song in your heart
Everybody sing, get into the swing,
Go Do Re Me Fa So La Si Do
Get Happy, get happy
amd everybody sing!

11.Sleep My Baby Sleep

Written:Franz Steininger/Edward Pola

Sleep, sleep my baby, sleep
And dream of a world to come
Sleep, sleep my baby, sleep
And dream of a world to come.

Where there will be no sorrow
Where there will be no tears
Where there will be no lonely people
And where there will be no fear.

Sleep, sleep my baby, sleep
And dream of a world to come
Sleep, sleep my baby, sleep
And dream of a world to come.

Where we will know true freedom
Where we will know true love
Where we will know that we are wanted
And precious to God above


12.You Can't Have Everything

Lyrics:Mack Gordon
Music:Harry Revel


13.Cry Baby Cry

Written:Jimmy Eaton/Terry Shand/Remus Harris/Irving Melshe

If teardrops could flood an ocean
I have an ocean
You try.
You'd make it in extra fast time
Just as a pastime
Easy as pie
Each time you
Cry, baby, cry
Just the way I did the day you broke my heart
Cry, baby, cry
Tables turn and now you've learned you're not so smart
You broke every promiseá
You couldn't be true
You gave me the go-by
For somebody new when I needed you
So cry, baby, cry.
My eyes are dry.
I'm laughin' up my sleeve to see my cry baby cry.
Cry, baby, cry (2)
Just the way I did the day you broke my heart
Cry, baby, cry
You feel too high
Tables turn and now you've learned you're not so smart
You broke every promiseá
You couldn't be true
You gave me the go-by
For somebody new when I needed you
So cry, baby, cry.
My eyes are dry.
I'm laughin', yes laughin'!
I'm laughin' up my sleeve to see my cry-baby cry.


14.Ten Pins in the Sky

Written:Joseph Mccarthy/Milton Ager

Did you ever wonder why in thunder
thunder comes in spring?
Once upon a time it seems
all the world was wrapped in dreams.
Playful little fellas, so they tell us
said Let's have our fling!
Spring is in the air, you know!
It's time to wake 'em up below!

So, when the thunder starts to thunder don't run home and cry.
They're playing ten-pins in the sky.
Little fellas way up yonder make the raindrops fly
while rollin', bowlin' ten-pins in the sky.

The world will wear a new bonnet
daffodils on it,
thanks to the skies above.
Thunder and showers
wake up the flowers,
where there are flowers
there must be love.

So, laugh at raindrops, laugh at thunder,
clouds will soon roll by.
They're playing ten-pins in the sky!


15.It Never Rains But What It Pours

Lyrics:Harry Revel/Mack Gordon
Music:Harry Revel/Mack Gordon


16.Can This Be The End Of The Rainbow

Written:Sammy Cahn/Charles Chaplin


17.Oceans Apart

Written:Mickey Rooney/Sidney Miller

Oceans apart and with only the blue between
Since we're apart
I'm yearning
I tell my heart
we must wait for another dawn
when he may be returning

How I regret the night he sailed for another shore
Will he come into sight to leave my arms no more?
I'll kiss him again
He'll know right from the very start
that we were never meant to be oceans apart

Oceans apart and with only the blue between us
Since we're apart
I'm yearning
I'll kiss him again
He'll know right from the very start
that we were never meant to be oceans apart.

19.F.D.R. Jones

Lyrics:Harold Rome
Music:Harold Rome

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.


20.I'm Just Wild About Harry

Lyrics:Noble Sissle/Eubie Blake
Music:Noble Sissle/Eubie Blake

I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me!
The heav'nly blisses of his kisses,
Fills me with ecstasy!

He's sweet just like chocolate candy,
Or like the honey from the bee
Oh, I'm just wild about Harry,
And he's just wild about me.


Now I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me!
The heav'nly blisses of his kisses,
Fills me with ecstasy!

Say now he's sweet just like chocolate candy,
Or like the honey from a bee
Oh, I'm just wild about Harry,
And he's just wild about, cannot do without,
He's just wild about me.


21.Our Love Affair

Lyrics:Roger Edens/Arthur Freed
Music:Roger Edens/Arthur Freed

Here we are two very bewilder'd people,
Here we are two babes that are lost in the wood.
We're not quite certain what has happen'd to us,
This lovely thing that's so marvelous,
But right from here the future looks awfully good.

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 will be such fun,
We'll be the envy of everyone.
Those famous lovers we'll make them forget
From Adam and Eve to Scarlett and Rhett.

When youth has had its merry fling
We'll spend our evenings remembering
Two happy people who say on the square,
Isn't ours a lovely love affair.


22.Sweet Sixteen

Lyrics:Roger Edens
Music:Roger Edens

I'll do anything
For my sweet sixteen,
And I'll do anything
For little run away child

Gave my heart an engagement ring,
She took ev'rything,
Ev'rything I gave her,
Oh sweet sixteen

Built a moon
For a rocking chair,
I never guessed it would
Rock her far from here
Oh, oh, oh.

Someone's built a candy castle
For my sweet sixteen
Someone's built a candy brain
And filled it in.

Well I'll do anything
For my sweet sixteen
Oh I'll do anything
For little runaway child

Well, memories may burn you,
Memories grow older as people can
They just get colder
Like sweet sixteen

I see it's clear
Baby, that you are
All through here
Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Someone's built a candy castle
For my sweet sixteen
Someone's built a candy house
To house her in.
Someone's built a candy castle
For my sweet sixteen
Someone's built a candy brain
And filled it in.

And I do anything
For my sweet sixteen
Oh, I do anything
For run away girl.

Yeah, sad and lonely and blue.
Yeah, gettin' over you.
How, how do you think it feels
Yeah to get up in the morning, get over you.
Up in the morning, get over you.
Wipe away the tears, get over you, get over, get over...

My sweet sixteen,
Oh runaway child
Oh sweet sixteen
Little runaway girl.

Gave my heart an engagement ring,
She left everything,
Everything I gave her,
Oh sweet sixteen
Built a moon
For a rocking chair,
I never guessed it would
Rock her far from here
Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Someone's built a candy castle
For my sweet sixteen
Someone's built a candy house
And house her in.
Someone's built a candy castle
For my sweet sixteen
Someone's built a candy house
And house her in.

And I'll do anything
For my sweet sixteen
Oh, I'll do anything
For little runaway child

Do anything
For my sweet sixteen
I'll do anything
For little runaway girl
Little runaway girl
Oh sweet sixteen
Oh sweet sixteen
Oh
