'S Wonderful |
Don't mind telling you, in my humble fash, That you thrill me through with a tender pash. When you said you care, 'Magine my emosh; I swore then and there permanent devosh. You made all other men seem blah; Just you alone filled me with Aah! 'Swonderful 'smarvelous! You should care for me 'Sawful nice 'sparadice! 'Swhat I love to see! You've made my life so glamorous You can't blame me for feeling amorous. Oh! 'swonderful! 'amarvelous! That you should care for me! My dear, it's fourleaf clover time, From now on my heart's working overtime.
South of the border |
South of the border down Mexico way That's where I fell in love When stars above came out to play And now as I wonder my thoughts ever stray South of the border down Mexico way She was a picture in old Spanish lace Just for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face For it was "Fiesta" and we were so gay South of the border down Mexico way Then she sighed as she whispered "Manana" Never dreaming that we were parrting And I lied as I whispered "Manana" For our tomorrow never came South of the border I rode back one day There in the veil of white by candle light she knelt to pray The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay South of the border down Mexico way Ay! Ay! Ay! Ay!
Swanee |
I've been a way from you a long time, I never thought I'd miss you so Somehow I feel your love was real, Near you I long to be, The bird are singing, it is songtime, The banjous strummin' soft and low, I know that you yearn for me to; Swanee you're calling me. Swanee how I love you, how I love you my dear old Swanee; I'd give the world to be among the folks in D-I-X-I Even now my Mammy's waiting for me, praying for me down by the Swanee, The folks up north will see no more when I go to the Swanee sshore Swanee Swanee I coming back to Swanee Mammy Mammy I have the old folks at home
Side by side |
Oh! we ain't got a barred of mony, Maybe we're ragged and funny, But we'll travel a long singin' a song Side by side Don't know wats's comin' tomorrow, Maybe it's trouble and sorrow But we'll travel the road sharin' our load Side by side Thru all kinds of weather What if the sky should fall Just as long as we're together It doesn't matter at all When they've all had their quarrels and parted We'll be the same as we started Just travelin' along singin' a song Side by side
Summertime |

Summertime in Venis |
I dream of the summertime, of Venis and summertime, I see the cafes,the sunlit days with you, my love. The antique shop where we'd stop for a souvenir, The bridge, the boat below, the blue a bove. I dream all the winter long, of mandolins that played our song, The dream is so real, I almost feel your lips on mine; And though I know we have to be an ocean a part, These's Venice and you and summertime, deep my heart.
The shadow of you smile |
One day we walked along th sand, One day in early spring. You held a piper in your hand to mend its broken wing, Now I'll remember many a day and many a lonely mile. The echo of a piper's song the shadow of a mile. The shadow of your smile when you are gone Will color all my dreams and light the dawn. Look into my eyes my love and see All the lovely things you are to me. Our wistful little star was far too high, A teardrop kissed your lips and so did I. Now when I remember spring All the joy that love can bring, I will be remembering The shadow of your smile
