1.Dear Mr. Gable You Made Me Love You
Lyrics:Joseph Mccarthy
Music:Jimmy Monaco
Dear Mr. Gable,
I am writing this to you
and I hope that you will read it so you'll know
My heart beats like a hammer
and I stutter and I stammer
every time I see you at the picture show.
I guess I'm just another fan of yours
and I thought I'd write and tell you so.
You made me love you
I didn't wanna do it, I didn't wanna do it.
You made me love you
and all the time you knew it, I guess you always knew it.
You made me happy, sometimes you made me glad.
But there were times, sir, you made me feel so sad.
You made me sigh 'cause
I didn't wanna tell you, I didn't wanna tell you
I think you're grand, that's true
Yes I do, 'deed I do, you know I do.
I must tell you what I'm feeling
The very mention of your name
sends my heart reeling.
You know you made me love you!
(dialogue)
Aw, gee, Mr. Gable, I don't wanna bother you! Guess you got a
lotta girls that tell you the same thing. And if you don't wanna
read this, well, you don't have to. But I just had to tell you
about the time I saw you in 'It Happened One Night'. That was
the first time I ever saw you, and I knew right then you were
the nicest fella in the movies! I guess it was 'cause you acted
so, well so natural like - not like a real actor at all, but
just like any fella you'd meet at shool or at a party. Then one
time I saw you in a picture with Joan Crawford, and I had to cry
a little 'cause you loved her so much and you couldn't have her
- not 'till the end of the picture, anyway. And then one time I
saw you in person. You were making a personal appearance at the
theatre, and I was standing there when you got out of your car,
and you almost knocked me down! Oh - but it wasn't your fault!
Naw, I was in the way. But you looked at me, and you smiled.
Yeah! You smiled right at me as if you meant it, and I cried all
the way home just 'cause you smiled at me for being in your way!
Aw, I'll never forget it, Mr. Gable. Honest injun. You're my
favorite actor!
(singing)
I don't care what happens, let the whole world stop.
As far as I'm concerned, you'll always be the top,
'cause you know you made me love you.
2.When You Wore a Tulip(And I Wore A Big Red Rose)
Lyrics:Jack Mahoney
Music:Percy Wenrich
Artist:Judy Garland/Gene Kelly
You wore a tulip,
A sweet, yellow tulip,
And I wore a big red rose.
When you caressed me,
'Twas then Heaven blessed me,
Such a blessing no one knows.
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie,
'Twas down where the blue grass grows.
Oh, it was sweeter than julep
When you wore a tulip,
And I wore a big red rose.
3.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
4.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?
5.Love
Lyrics:Hugh Martin/Ralph Blane
Music:Hugh Martin/Ralph Blane
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!
6.Meet Me In St. Louis
Lyrics:Andrew B.Sterling
Music:Kerry Mills
When Louis came home to the flat,
He hung up his coat and his hat,
He gazed all around, but no wifey he found,
So he said 'where can Flossie be at?'
A note on the table he spied,
He read it just once, then he cried.
It ran, 'Louis dear, it's too slow for for me hear,
So I think I will go for a ride.'
CHORUS
'Meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair,
Don't tell me the lights are shining
any place but there;
We will dance the Hoochee Koochee,
I will be your tootsie wootsie,
If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair.'
Verse two
The dresses that hung in the hall,
Were gone, she had taken them all;
She took all his rings and the rest of his things;
The picture he missed from the wall.
'What! moving!' the janitor said,
'Your rent is paid three months ahead.'
'What good is the flat?' said poor Louis, 'Read that.'
And the janitor smiled as he read.
CHORUS
'Meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair,
Don't tell me the lights are shining
any place but there;
We will dance the Hoochee Koochee,
I will be your tootsie wootsie,
If you will meet in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair.'
7.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.
8.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.
9.A Pretty Girl Milking Her Cow
Lyrics:Roger Edens
Music:Roger Edens
Arranger:Roger Edens
Twas on a bright morning in Summer
When I first heard his voice spakin' low
As he said to a colleen beside him
'Who's that pretty girl milking her cow?'
Och many times often ye met me
And told me that I should be
You darling, Acushla,
A Lana Mavourneen, Asuilish machree
Purty girl, purty girl,
With no on there to show her how
The purt, purt, purty girl is now
Milking her cow
I have not the manners or graces
Of the girls in the world where ye move
And I have not their beautiful faces
But oh, I've a heart that can love
And if it please ye, I'll dress me in satin
With jewels, jewels in me brow
But och, don't be after forgettin'
Your purty girl milking her cow
Purty girl, purty cow,
I'm sure this song would have never been wrote
If the pretty girl hadda been milking her goat
But the goat wasn't feeling well anyhow
So the pretty girl was milking her cow.
Her cow, her cow...
La, la, la, la, la, la...
La, la, la la, la, la, la La, la, la, la
A purty girl milking her cow!
10.The Trolley Song
Lyrics:Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin
Music:Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin
With my high starched-collar and my high-topped shoes
And my hair piled high upon my head,
I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley, and lost my heart
instead.
With his light brown derby and his bright green tie,
He was quite the handsomest 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, from the moment I saw
him I fell.
Chug, chug, chug went the motor, bump, bump, bump went the
brake,
Thump, thump, thump went my heart strings, when he smiled I
could feel the car shake.
He tipped his hat, and took a seat, he said he hoped he hadn't
stepped upon my feet.
He asked my name, I held my breath.
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death.
Chug, chug, chug went the motor, pop, pop, pop went the wheels,
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings,
As he started to go then I started to know how it feels, when
the universe reels.
The day was bright, the air was sweet,
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet.
You tried to sing, but couldn't squeak, in fact you loved him so
you couldn't even speak.
Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer, plop, plop, plop went the
wheels,
Stop, stop, stop went my heart strings,
As he started to leave, I took hold of his sleeve with my hand,
And as if it were planned, he stayed on with me and it was grand
just to stand
With his hand holding mine to the end of the line.
11.Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Lyrics:Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin
Music:Ralph Blane/Hugh Martin
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
Next year all our troubles will be
out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the yule-tide gay
Next year all our troubles will be
miles away
Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Will be near to us once more
Someday soon, we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
12.Friendship
Lyrics:Cole Porter
Music:Cole Porter
If you're ever in a jam, here I am.
If you're ever in a mess, S.O.S.
If you're so happy, you land in jail. I'm your bail.
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship.
When other friendships are soon forgot, ours will still be hot.
Da da da da da da dig dig dig.
If you're ever down a well, ring my bell.
If you're ever up a tree, just phone to me.
If you ever loose your teeth when you're out to dine, borrow
mine.
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship.
When other friendships are soon forgeet, ours will still be
great.
Loddle doddle chuck chuck chaa.
If they ever black you're eyes, put me wise.
If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose.
And if they ever put a bullet through your brain, Ill complain.
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship.
When other friendships are soon forgit, ours will still be it.
Ah loddle doddle hip hap hap.
If you ever loose your mind, I'll be kind.
And if you ever loose your shirt, I'll be hurt.
If you're ever in a mill and get sawed in half, I won't laugh.
It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship.
When other friendships are are up the crick, ours will still be
slick.
Ah loddle doddle woof woof woof, hep hep hep, chopp chop chop,
dig dig dig.
Good evening friends.
13.For Me and My Gal
Lyrics:Edgar Leslie/Ray Goetz
Music:George W.Meyer
Artist:Judy Garland/Gene Kelly
What a beautiful day
For a wedding in May!
See the people all stare
At the loveable pair.
She's a vision of joy,
He's the luckiest boy.
In his wedding array
Hear him smilingly say:
The bells are ringing for me and my gal,
The birds are singing for me and my gal.
Everybody's been knowing
To a wedding they're going
And for weeks they've been sewing,
Every Susie and Sal.
They're congregating for me and my gal,
The Parson's waiting for me and my gal.
And sometime
I'm goin' to build a little home for two,
For three or four or more,
In Love-land for me and my gal.
See the relatives there
Looking over the pair!
They can tell at a glance
It's a loving romance.
It's a wonderful sight
As the families unite.
Gee! It makes the boy proud
As he says to the crowd:
The bells are ringing for me and my gal,
The birds are singing for me and my gal.
Everybody's been knowing
To a wedding they're going
And for weeks they've been sewing,
Every Susie and Sal.
They're congregating for me and my gal,
The Parson's waiting for me and my gal.
And sometime
I'm goin' to build a little home for two,
For three or four or more,
In Love-land for me and my gal.
(repeat chorus)
14.Fly Me To The Moon
Lyrics:Bart Howard
Music:Bart Howard
Fly me to the moon
Let me sing among those stars
Let me see what spring is like
On Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, baby kiss me
Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you
15.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.
16.But Not for Me
Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:George Gershwin
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 cheer-
Ful Polyannas,
Who tell 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;
Heigh ho! Alas! And al-
So Lackaday!
Although I can't dismiss
The mem'ry of his kiss -
I guess he's not for me.
17.That Old Black Magic
Lyrics:Johnny Mercer
Music:Harold Arlen
That old black magic has me in its spell,
That old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine
The same old tingle that I feel inside
And then that elevator starts its slide,
Down and down I go,
Round and round I go,
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide.
I should stay away but what can I do,
I hear your name, and I'm aflame,
A flame with such a burning desire,
That only your kiss can put out the fire.
'Cause you're the lover I have waited for,
The mate that fate had me created for,
And every time you lips meet mine,
Darling, down and down I go,
Round and round I go
In that spin of love that I am in,
Under that old black of love.
18.Poor Little Rich Girl
Lyrics:Noel Coward
Music:Noel Coward
Diamonds in the bottom of her 'new-brand' boots
Got no soul, they won't get used
The only thing you take with you is what you give away...
Poor Little Rich Girl exquisitely walks the blues
Diamonds in the tires of her boyfriend's car
She's got to get a new one, she won't get far
The only thing you take with you is what you give away...
Little Rich Girl needs a ride, but, the car stays parked
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
Poor Little Rich Girl
Little Rich Girl
Diamonds in the way she gets things done
Always gets her way, she's got no one
The only thing you take with you is what you give away...
Poor Little Rich Girl pretends she's having fun
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
Poor Little Rich Girl
Little Rich Girl
I want a real girl, I want the girl for me
With a real world, one that I can see
I'll know the real girl — I'll realize,
By the diamonds in her eyes.
I have a dream girl, when I grow up
I have a dream girl, when I wake up
You an' me girl... we'll be up all night......
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Diamonds in the words of her hot-line phone
Never rings like it did before
The only thing you take with you is what you give away....
No one comes out to play no more, no more, no more....
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
Poor Little Rich Girl
Little Rich Girl
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
Ahhhh-n-nn-nahh-n-yea-yeah...
Poor Little Rich Girl
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
She's a Poor Little Rich Girl
19.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

20.I Got Rhythm
Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:George Gershwin
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 ?
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 ?
I got rhythm, I got music
I got daisys, in green pastures
I got starlight
I got sweet dreams
I got my man
Who could ask for anything more ?
21.The Boy Next Door
Lyrics:Hugh Martin/Ralph Blane
Music:Hugh Martin/Ralph Blane
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 5135 Kensington Avenue
And he lives at 5133.
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.
22.On The Atchison Topeka And The Santa Fe
Lyrics:Johnny Mercer
Music:Harry Warren
What a lovely trip
I'm feeling so fresh and alive
And I'm so glad to arrive
It's all so grand
It's easy to see you don't need a palace
To feel like Alice in Wonderland
Back in Ohio where I come from
I've done a lot of dreamin' and I've travelled some
But I never thought I'd see the day
When I ever took a ride on the Santa Fe
(wanna take a ride on the Santa Fe)
I would lean across my window sill
And hear the whistle echoin' across the hill
Then I'd watch the lights till they fade away
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe
What a thrill (what a great big wonderful thrill)
With the wheels a-singin' 'westward ho'
Right from the day I heard them start
'Cross the Kansas plains from New Mexico
I guess I've got a little gypsy in my heart
When I'm old and grey and settled down
If I ever get a chance to sneak away from town
Then I'll spend my busman's holiday
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe
All aboard! (we came across the country lickety-split)
(rollin' ninety miles an hour)
I can't believe I'm here at last
Woo-oo-ooo!
(when you go travellin', it's best for you
to take the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe!)
I can't believe that anything could go so fast
Then you pull that throttle, whistle blows
A-huffin' and a-puffin' and away she goes
All aboard for California*, hey!
On the Atchison (on the Atchison)
On the Atchison, Topeka (on the Atchison, Topeka)
On the Atchison, Topeka (on the Atchison, Topeka)
On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe!
23.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.
24.Waltz With A Swing/Americana
25.Easy To Love
Lyrics:Leo Sayer/Albert Hammond
Music:Leo Sayer/Albert Hammond
It's easy to love when I love someone like you
It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do
You know love don't come easy and love don't come fast
But when love comes to you, you gotta make it last
On the day that I met you I knew it could be
So easy for you and so easy for me
It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe
It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do, babe
Like the stars in the night seem to shine from above
But that's the way that you shine when you give me your love
And your love satisfies me like a natural high
From the sole of my feet to the top of the sky
It's easy to love when I love someone like you
It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do
You know love don't come easy and love don't come fast
But when love comes to you, you gotta make it last
On the day that I met you I knew it could be
So easy for you and so easy for me
It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe
Oh and I do, babe
It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do, babe
Oh and I do, babe
It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe
It's easy to love
It's easy to love...
26.Down on Melody Farm
I'm tired of the noise and hurly-burly
that fills the city late and early.
I long to hear the music of the used-to-be
that mother nature made for me.
I want to wander where the skies are blue,
where birds are singing all the long day through,
the music that I love to listen to
down on melody farm.
The cowbells tinkle in the early morn.
the bees are buzzin' 'round a field of corn,
to tell me that another song is born
down on melody farm.
The lazy river is drifting along
while daffodils dance on a hill
and while it's drifting it composes a song
to a water lily.
The morning sings the golden melody,
the evening brings the moonlight symphony,
for all the world is wrapped in harmony
down on melody farm.
I'm gonna pack my bag,
I'm gonna clear my brain,
and then I'm gonna buy a one-way ticket
on the fastest choo-choo train.
I'm gonna try to find
a little peace of mind.
I wanna leave the sound of rivets
and the horns of taxis way behind.
I want to run through the fields of the new-mown hay
and at the close of day
let me stray
where I hear the organ playing.
Just a song at twighlight
when the lights are low.
I wanna go,
I wanna go
I wanna be a little country girl in calico.
The morning sings the golden melody,
the evening brings the moonlight symphony,
for all the world is wrapped in harmony
down on melody farm.

28.D'ya Love Me
29.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!
30.Got A Pair Of New Shoes
31.Yours And Mine
The stars that shine are yours and mine
The rainbows in the sky are yours and mine
The song of springtime, the lullaby of fall
The sunshine of summer time belongs to us all
The moon above is yours and mine
The right to fall in love is yours and mine
The hope of finding the dream our hearts design
All this is yours and mine
32.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
33.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!
34.The Joint Is Really Jumpin' Down At Carnegie Hall
Perhaps it was something that hit me, perhaps it was something I
ate,
But out of the blue I dreamed I met you and you said to me, 'Hi,
ya Gate!'
Millions have heard you play Chopin, the critics applaud and
approve,
But millions more would simply adore to hear you get in the
groove.
You won't believe it, you'll think it's a dream
To hear them riffing it, right on the beam,
But when you hear trumpets give out a call, you'll know
The Joint Is Really Jumpin' down at Carnegie Hall
Instead of Strauss they play Irving Berlin,
Instead of Brahms it's 'Begin the Begin'
Those classic ackies are due for a fall since
The Joint Is Really Jumpin' down at Carnegie Hall
They're playing
Ta-tlee-a-ti, Ta-tlee-a-ti, with Shostakovich,
Ta-tlee-a-ti, Ta-tlee-a-ti, Mozart and Bach,
Ta-tlee-a-ti, Ta-tlee-a-ti, and they don't know which,
'Cause anything can happen when they start to rock.
The philharmonic was so dignified
But now they're groovy and starting to ride,
Handel and Haydn are facing the wall
'cause The Joint Is Really Jumpin' down in Carnegie Hall.
They-hey swing ev'rything with a ding dong
And when the Maestro gives them a beat, it's a
Reet Beat that starts 'em to toot with a
Root Toot that's a bit of alright,
and even Jose Iturbi getting hep, he's hep, he's hep.
Boy!
Tschai-Tschai-Tschai-kovsky would really be hurt
to hear 'em jivin' his Piano Concert,
Beethoven's lucky, he can't hear at all
because the Joint Is Really Jumpin' down at Carnegie Hall.
35.All I Do Is Dream Of You
Lyrics:Arthur Freed
Music:Nacio Herb Brown
All I do is dream of you the whole night through
With the dawn I still go on and dream of you
You're every thought, you're everything
You're every song I ever sing
Summer, winter, autumn and spring
And were there more than twenty four hours a day
They'd be spent in sweet content, dreaming away
When skies are grey, when skies are blue
Morning, noon and night-time too
All I do is dream of you the whole day through
36.Your Broadway And My Broadway
37.Meet The Beat Of My Heart
Lyrics:Mack Gordon/Harry Revel
Music:Mack Gordon/Harry Revel
38.Alone
Alone,
Alone with a sky of romance above.
Alone,
Alone on a night that was meant for love.
There must be someone waiting
who feels the way I do.
Whoever you are, are you, are you
Alone,
Alone on this night that we two could share.
Alone,
Alone with a kiss that could make me care.
And when you come I promise
to be your very own!
Alone,
Alone with a heart meant for you.
And when you come I promise
to be your very own!
Alone,
Alone with a heart meant for you.
Alone.

40.On the Bumpy Road to Love
*PINKIE*
There's a road that leads to happiness,
I know we can find it.
Although it's full of hills an spills, darling, we won't mind
it.
I've got you, You've got me who cares how rough the road might
be,
We'll go bumpty-bumpty bumpty-bump on the bumpy road to love.
Remember this when anything goes wrong,
Remember this we'll merrily roll along.
We'll get rich or we won't, but who cares whether we do or don't
We'll go bumpty-bumpty bumpty-bump on the bumpy road to love.
Hi-ho whadda we car. We're on our way but we don't know where.
We'll go bumpty-bumpty bumpty-bump on the bumpy road to love
Let's all join in and sing this tune, Dottie, Buzz
We'll go bumpty-bumpty bumpty-bump on the bumpy road to love
We'll never need a silver lining for we'll never ever have a
cloud
Give three cheers for four Musketeers!
*DOTTIE
Only four?
*PINKIE*
Just four
*BUZZ
Just four?

And Oo-la-la. We'll go bumpty-bump, bumpty-bump, we'll go
bumpty-bump on the bumpty-bump on the bumpy road to love.
*ALL*
Hail! Hail! The gangs all here!
*PINKIE*
Home sweet home is in the rear. Bumpty, bumpty, bumpty bump on
the bumpy road to love.
