- A String Of Pearls
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
- Amapola
A boy found a dream upon a distant shore
A maid with a way of whispering "si senor."
Each night while guitars would softly play,
The tune seemed to dance round the words that he'd say:
Amapola, my pretty little poppy
You're like that lovely flower so sweet and heavenly,
Since I found you, my heart is wrapped around you
- Be Happy
Laugh and sing, be happy
It’s the thing, be happy,
Wink your eye, then fix your tie
Be as I, be happy!
Fall in line, be happy,
Waste no time, be happy
Time won’t wait, why hesitate
- Blue Evening
Blue evening after a lonely day
Blue evening spent in the same old way
My future looks as dark as the skies above me
There must be someone here in this world who loves me...
A sweet love song would be so grand to know
But my love songs are all from the radio
Another dawn is waiting for me, another day and then
- But It Don't Mean a Thing
And so you kissed me
But it didn‘t mean a thing
Never was a sigh so tender
But it didn’t mean a thing
When you caressed me
How I wanted you to cling!
You pretended to surrender
- Call of the Canyon
Just a melancholy echo
Lingering when the day is through
It's the call of the canyon
Once again I'm dreaming of you
Every night I search the moonlight
Up and down the river shore
It's the call of the canyon
Maybe I will see you once more
- Chapel in the Valley
There's a chapel in the valley
In the valley of my dreams
And the organ's playing just for you and me
There's a choir in the chapel
In my reverie it seems
I can hear their voices sing, "Oh, promise me"
My heart began to falter
As the bells began to chime
- Chattanooga Choo Choo
Поезд «Чаттануга чу-чу».
Pardon me, boy
Is that the Chattanooga choo choo?(Yes, Yes)
Track twenty-nine.
Boy, you can gimme a shine.
I can afford
To board a Chattanooga choo choo.
- Chattanooga Choo-Choo
CHATTANOOGA CHOO-CHOO
ПОЕЗД НА ЧАТТАНУГУ
- Pardon me, boy,
- Послушай, друг!
Is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo?
А где здесь Чаттануга Чу-Чу?
- Track twenty nine!
- Dearly Beloved
Tell me that it's true, Tell me you agree,
I was meant for you, You were meant for me.
Dearly beloved, how clearly I see,
Somewhere in Heaven you were fashioned for me,
Angel eyes knew you, angel voices led me to you;
Nothing could save me, fate gave me a sign;
I know that I'll be yours come shower or shine;
- Faithful Forever
Faithful, Forever,
Whatever I do,
Remember I'm true,
Remember that.
Faithful, Forever,
And thankful for you,
I'll keep smiling through,
Remember that.
- I Know Why And So Do You
МНЕ ДЕКАБРЬ КАЖЕТСЯ МАЕМ
Из кинофильма "Серенада солнечной долины" (Sun Valley Serenade) 1941
Оркестр Глена Миллера
Стихи Мак Гордон (Mack Gordon)
Why do robins sing in December,
Long before the springtime is due?
And even though it's snowing,
- I'm Old Fashioned
I am not such a clever one
About the latest fads
I admit I was never one
Adored by local lads
Not that I ever try to be a saint
I'm the type that they classify as quaint
I'm old fashioned
I love the moonlight
- I've got a Gal In Kalamazoo
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H
I got a gal
In Kalamazoo
Dont wanna boast
But I know she’s the toast
Of Kalamazoo
(Zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo, zoo)
- Imagination
Imagination is funny, it makes a cloudy day sunny
Makes a bee think of honey just as I think of you
Imagination is crazy, you whole perspective gets hazy
Starts you asking a daisy what to do, what to do
Have you ever felt a gentle touch and then a kiss and then, and then
Find it's only your imagination again, oh well
- In the Mood
We meet and the angels sing
The angels sing the sweetest song I ever heard
You speak and the angels sing
Or am I breathing music into every word?
Suddenly the setting is strange
I can see water and moonlight beaming
Silvry waves that break on an undiscovered shore
Then suddenly I see it all change
- It Happened In Sun Valley
Howdy folks, lets go for a ride
Get your favourite one to sit by your side
Cuddle up in the sleigh
Giddy-up, Nelly Gray
And away we go!
While you're listening to the sleigh bells ring
You're yodelling to your baby
You'll feel nice and warm
- Juke Box Saturday Night
Last night, I touched your fingertips
And when I touched your lips
I fell in love last night
Last night, I felt your heart beat fast
Swiftly the moments passed
Why couldn't it last last night?
- Lullabye of the Rain
I love the pitter-patter
I hear upon my window pane
My troubles cease to matter
When I hear the lullaby of the rain
I've talked with every flower
That blooms along the country lane
they're happy in a shower
`Cause they love the lullaby of the rain
- Moo nlight Ser enade
I stand at your gate and the song that I sing is of moonlight.
I stand and I wait for the touch of your hand in the June night.
The roses are sighing a Moonlight Serenade.
The stars are aglow and tonight how their light sets me dreaming.
My love, do you know that your eyes are like stars brightly beaming?
I bring you and sing you a Moonlight Serenade.
- Moonlight Mood
Moonlight mood when twilight is ending
You're in my moonlight mood and our hearts are blending
There on the same old wall that we used to know
Long ago
You walked there in a ribbon of moonlight
There you are as lovely as ever
- Moonlight Serenade
I stand at your gate and the song that I sing is of moonlight.
I stand and I wait for the touch of your hand in the June night.
The roses are sighing a Moonlight Serenade.
The stars are aglow and tonight how their light sets me dreaming.
My love, do you know that your eyes are like stars brightly beaming?
I bring you and sing you a Moonlight Serenade.
- My Last Goodbye
I smiled, so did you,
But somehow we knew
It was my last goodbye to you
Your eyes met with mine
Your lips so divine
It was my last goodbye to you
Oh darling, though you are gone
- Ooh, What You Said
Ooh! What you said, got me all flustered, face is red
Ooh! What you said when you said what you said
Ooh! What you did, got me all bashful like a kid
Ooh! What you did when you did what you did
Fun is fun, but look at what you've done
ain't you the naughty one, talking that way,
Say, are you joking or just outspoken?
- Peggy the Pin Up Girl
Peggy Jones had her picture took
It got in "Life" and it got in "Look"
Then the cameras began to click
And that my friend really did the trick
Then her fortunes began to climb
She appeared on "The March of Time"
All the boys in the Army camps
- Pennsylvania 6-5000
Numbers I've got by the dozen
Everyone's uncle and cousin
But I can't live without buzzin'
Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand
I've got a sweety I know there
Someone who sets me aglow there
Gives me the sweetest "hello there"
Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand
- Perfidia
To you my heart cries out, Perfidia,
For I found you, the love of my life, in somebody else's arms
Your eyes are echoing perfidia,
Forgetful of our promise of love, you're sharing another's charms
With a sad lament my dreams have faded like a broken melody
While the gods of love look down and laugh at what romantic fools we mortals be
And now I know my love was not for you
And so I take it back with a sigh, perfidious one, goodbye
- Pin Ball Paul
Stranger, step right up and meet the champ,
He's a winner, takes everybody into camp.
May we introduce to you,
Meet a pin ball player who
Lights every light, every night.
Pin ball Paul beats them all,
Gets ten thousand every ball.
- Serenade In Blue
When I hear that serenade in blue
I'm somewhere in another world,
alone with you
Sharing all the joys we used to know,
many moons ago.
Once again your face comes back to me
Just like the theme of some forgotten melody
- Shake Down The Stars
Shake down the stars, pull down the clouds
Turn off the moon, do it soon
I can't enjoy this night without you
Shake down the stars
Dry up the streams
Stop all my dreams.
Cut off the breeze, do it please
- She'll Always Remember
She'll always remember when you were only four
Your favorite game was playing with your soldiers on the floor
The time when you were seven and tumbled down the stairs
An angel up in heaven answered all her prayers
- Skylark
Skylark, have you anything to say to me,
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?
Skylark, have you seen a valley green with spring
Where my heart can go a-journeying
Over the shadows and the rain to a blossom-covered lane?
- Something to Remember You By
Oh, give me something to remember you by
When you are far away from me
Just a little something, meaning love cannot die
No matter where you chance to be
So I'll pray for you, night and day for you
It will see me through like a charm 'til you return
So give me something I can remember you by
- Starlight and Music
Starlight and music
It's time for love
Your heart and my heart
In rhythm with love
don't let this moment escape in the blue
Darling, tonight is the night for dreams to come true
Starlight and music, it's heavenly
Holding you near me, so heavenly,
- Sweet Potatoe Piper
Music soothes the savage
That's a well known phrase
But your heart becomes
Full of kettle drums
When the sweet potato piper plays
Go on, throw your hat up
Shout a few hoorays
- The Story of a Starry Night
This is the story of a starry night,
The faded glory of a new delight
One breathless meeting,
Two lips repeating
Three precious words that were sweet but fleeting...
When stars are bright my heart keeps wondering why
Our first "goodnight" became our last goodbye
- Vagabond Dreams
Vagabond dreams steal into my heart
And speak to me of love once more
Then take me far on a drifting star
To some romantic shore
Find me the one, that wonderful one
who'll whisper "I am yours forever"
Fill the night with music
- What's The Matter With Me
What’s the matter with me
Nobody loves me
I just happen to be unlucky in love
It seems that every time I make a date
I know from the start
Someone’s gonna break the date
And break my heart...
- When That Man Is Dead and Gone
Satan, Satan, caught up a plan
Dressed as a man,
Walkin the Earth, and since he began
The world is hell for you and me
But what a heaven it will be
When that man is dead and gone
When that man is dead and gone
We'll go dancin down the street
- When The Swallows Come Back To Capistrano
When the swallows come back to Capistrano
That's the day you promised to come back to me
When you whispered, "Farewell" in Capistrano
T'was the day the swallows flew out to the sea
All the mission bells will ring
The chapel choir will sing
The happiness you'll bring
- Yes, My Darling Daughter
<I’ve gotta be good or mama will scold me
Yes, yes, yes
I asked her and this is what she told me
Yes, yes, yes>
Mama, may I go out dancing? Yes, my darling daughter
Mama, may I try romancing? Yes, my darling daughter
What if there’s a moon, mama darling, and it’s shining on the water
