1.Darkness On The Delta
Darkness on the Delta
J. Levinson
When it's darkness on the delta that's the time my heart is
light,
When it's darkness on the delta let me linger in the shelter of
the night;
Fields of cotton all around me, darkies singin' sweet and low,
Lord I'm
lucky that you found me Where the muddy Mississippi waters flow.
Lounging on the levee, Listenin' to the nightingales way up
above,
Laughter on the levee, no one's heart is heavy,
All God's children got someone to love.
When it's darkness on the delta, Only heaven is in sight,
When it's darkness on the delta, let me linger in the shelter of
the
night.
2.I'll String Along With You
(You May Not Be An Angel, But) I'll String Along With You
- words by Al Dubin, music by Harry Warren
- from the Broadway musical '20 Million Sweethearts'
- as recorded in San Francisco, March 1, 1934 by
Dick Powell with Ted Fio Rito ＆ his Orchestra
All my life I've waited for an angel
But no angel ever came along
Then one happy afternoon I met you
And my heart began to sing a song
Somehow, I mistook you for an angel
But now I'm glad that I was wrong
You may not be an angel
'Cause angels are so few
But until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you
I'm looking for an angel
To sing my love song to
And until the day that one comes along
I'll sing my song to you
For every little fault that you have
Say, I've got three or four
The human little faults you do have
Just make me love you more
You may not be an angel
But still I'm sure you'll do
So until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you
--- brief instrumental interlude ---
For every little fault that you have
Say, I've got three or four
The human little faults you do have, honey
Just make me love you more
You may not be an angel
But still I'm sure you'll do
So until the day that one comes along
I'll string along with you
3.Let's Face The Music And Dance
Let's Face The Music And Dance
Ted Fio Rito
There may be trouble ahead.
But while there's music and love and romance,
Let's face the music and dance.
Be fore the fiddlers have fled,
Before they ask us to pay the bill,
And while we still have the chance,
Let's face the music and dance.
Soon we'll be without the moon,
Humming a diff'rent tune, and then
There may be teardrops to shed.
So while there's music and love and romance,
Let's face the music and dance.
Tag： 2nd chorus
Dance, dance, Let's face the music and dance.
