FERRY BOAT SERENADE

I have never been aboard a steamer
I am just content to be a dreamer
Even if I could afford a steamer
I will take the ferry boat every time

I love to ride the ferry
Where music is so merry
There's a man who plays the concertina
On the moonlit upper deck arena

While boys and girls are dancing
While sweethearts are romancing
Life is like a mardi-gras
Funiculi, funicula

Happy, we cling together
Happy, we sing together
Happy, with the ferry boat serenade

I am happy, very, very happy
When we're on the ferry
The music is so merry
There's a man who plays the concertina
On the moonlit upper deck arena, arena

I love to ride the ferry
Where music is so merry
There's a man who always plays the concertina, oh my
On the moonlit upper deck arena, by and by

While the boys and girls are dancing, oh dancing
While, while the sweethearts are romancing
Life is like a mardi-gras
Funiculi, funicula

Happy, we cling together
Happy, we sing together
Happy with the ferry boat serenade

FIVE O'CLOCK WHISTLE

The five o'clock whistle's on the blink,
The whistle won't blow and whadd'ya think?
My pop is still in the factory 'cause he don't know
What time it happens to be.

The five o'clock whistle didn't blow
The whistle is broke and whadda'ya know?
If somebody don't find out what's wrong
Oh, my pop'll be workin' all night long,

Oh! Who's gonna fix the whistle?
Won't somebody fix the whistle?
Oh! Who's gonna fix the whistle?
So my poor old pop will know
It's time for him to stop

Ya ought to hear what my mommy said,
When papa came home and sneaked into bed
And told her he worked till half past two
'Cause the five o'clock whistle never blew.

Benny Goodman
How High The Moon

Some where there’s music,
How faint the tune!
Some where there’s heaven,
How high the moon!
There is no moon above
When love is far away too,
‘Til it comes true
That you love me as I love you.
Some where there’s music,
It’s where you are.
Some where there’s heaven,
How near, how far!
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon.
Until you will, how still my heart,
How high the moon!

Make Believe Island

Make Believe Island is waiting just for you,
Beautiful island beyond the blue.
Make Believe Island is waiting 'round the bend,
Magical island of lush detail.

In fair tropical splendor
Love will find you and then
To it fondly surrender
Whisp'ring "kiss me again".

Wonderful island where broken dreams come true.
Make Believe Island beyond the blue.

Connee Boswell
ON THE ISLE OF MAY

We strolled along
Through the heavens
And it was June
June on the Isle of May

Your lips were sweet
As the heaven
Love was in bloom
There on the Isle of May

Close in your arms
Heaven opened its doors
Then like a fool
I sailed away

But our love
Will bring us together
When it is June
June on the Isle of May

Close in your arms
Heaven opened its doors
Then like a fool
I sailed away

But our love
Will bring us together
When it is June
June on the Isle of May

Fools Rush In

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head
Though I see the danger there
If there’s a chance for me then I don’t care

Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love so how are they to know
When we met I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in

Ray Noble
That certain night, the night we met
There was magic abroad in the air,
There were angels dining at the Ritz and
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.
I may be right, I may be wrong,
But I’m perfectly willing to swear
That when you turn’d and smiled at me
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.
The moon that lingered over London town,
Poor puzzled moon, he wore a frown.
How could he know we two were so in love.
The whole darn world seemed upside down,
The streets of town were paved with stars.
It was such a romantic affair,
And as we kiss’d and said “goodnight”
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.

How strange it was, how sweet and strange.
There was never a dream to compare
with that hazy, crazy night we met,when
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.
This heart of mine beat loud and fast
Like a merry-go-round in a fair.
For we were dancing cheek to cheek and
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.
When dawn came stealing up all gold and blue
To interrupt our rendezvous,
I still remember how you smiled and said
“Was that a dream or was it true?”
Our homeward step was just as light
As the tap dancing feet of Astaire
And like an echo far away
A nightingale sang on Berk’ley Square.

Bing Crosby
ONLY FOREVER

Do I want to be with you
As the years come and go?
Only forever
If you care to know.
Would I grant all your wishes
And be proud of the task
Only forever
If someone should ask.
How long would it take me
To be near if you bechon?
Off hand I would figure
Less than a second.
Do you think I'll remember
How you looked when you smile?
Only forever
That's puttin' it mild.

Orrin Tucker
STOP! IT'S WONDERFUL

Top's down on your mother's car
Right in front of every star
Don't you know just where you are?
Stop! It's wonderful.

I'll admit I think you're swell,
Nice to know you, nice you fell,
I'm afraid you'll kiss and tell
Stop! It's wonderful.

And I don't know just what I'll do
'Cause I'm getting sentimental over you
What's to do

Better start that motor, turn the key
Promised I'd be home by three,
Can't forget what Ma told me
Stop! It's wonderful

Jimmy Dorsey
Blue Champagne

Blue Champagne purple shadows and Blue Champagne,
With the echoes that still remain I keep a blue rendezvous.
Bubbles rise like a fountain before my eyes
And they suddenly crystallize to form a vision of you.

All the plans we started, all the songs we sang
Each little dream we knew seem to overtake me like a boomerang.

Blue is the sparkle, gone is the tang
Each old refrain keeps returning as I remain
With my memories and Blue Champagne
To toast the dream that was you.

Green Eyes

Well, Green Eyes with their soft lights,
Your eyes that promise sweet nights,
Bring to my soul a longing, a thirst for love divine.
In dreams I seem to hold you, to find you and enfold you,
Our lips meet and our hearts, too, with a thrill so sublime.

Those cool and limpid Green Eyes -
A pool wherein my love lies.
So deep that in my searching for happiness
I fear that they will ever haunt me,
All through my life they'll taunt me.
But will they ever want me?
Green Eyes, make my dreams come true.

Dinah Shore
Jim

Why am I sitting alone tonight,
when I could be out where the lights are bright?
It’s all because of Jim, It’s all because of Jim.
Why am i wasting these precios years?
Why am I crying these bitter tears?
It’s all because of Jim, It’s all because of Jim.

Jim doesn’t ever bring me pretty flowers,
Jim never tries to cheer my lonely hours,
Don’t know why I’m so crazy for Jim.
Jim never tells me I’m his hearts desire.
I never seem to set his love afire
Gone are the years I’ve wasted on him.
Sometimes when I get feeling low,
I say “Let’s call it quits.”
Then I hang on and let him go
Breaking my heart in bits.
Some day I know tht Jim will up and leave me,
But even if he does you can believe me,
I’ll go on carrying the torch for Jim.

Be Careful, It's My Heart

Sweetheart of mine, it's more than a valentine.
Be careful, it's my heart.
It's not my watch you're holding, it's my heart.
It's not the note I sent you that you quickly burned.
It's not the book I lent you that you never returned.
Remember it's my heart.
The heart with which so willingly I part.
It's yours to take to keep or break,
But please, before you start,
Be careful, it's my heart.

Woody Herman
BLUES IN THE NIGHT

My mama done tol' me
When I was in kneepants
My mama done tol' me, Son!
A woman'll sweet talk
And give ya the big eye
But when the sweet talkin's done
A woman's a two-face
A worrisome thing who'll leave ya t' sing the blues in the night

Now the rain's a-fallin'
Hear the train a-callin'
Whoo-ee.. My mama done tol' me
Hear that lonesome whistle
Blowin' 'cross the trestle
Whoo-ee.. My mama done tol' me
A whoo-ee-duh whoo-ee
Ol' clickety clack's a-echoin' back the blues in the night
My mama was right, there's blues in the night

Harry James
Ι don't to walk without you

All our friends keep knocking at the door
They've asked me out a hundred times or more
But all I say is, "Leave me in the gloom"
And here I stay within my lonely room
'Cause...

I don't want to walk without you, Baby
Walk without my arm about you, Baby
I thought the day you left me behind
I'd take a stroll and get you right off my mind
But now I find that
I don't want to walk without the sunshine
Why'd you have to turn off all that sunshine?
Oh, Baby, please come back or you'll break my heart for me
'Cause I don't want to walk without you

Charlie Spivak
I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen

Old Mister absent minded that’s, me.
Just as forgetful as I can be.
I’ve got the strangest sort of a mind.
I’m always leaving something behind.

I left my heart at the stage door canteen.
I left it there with a girl named Eileen.
I kept her serving doughnuts ‘til all she had were gone.
I sat there dunking doughnuts ‘til she caught on.
I must go back to the Army routine.
And ev’ry doughboy knows what that will mean.
A soldier boy with out a heart
Has two strikes on him from the start
And my heart’s at the stage door canteen.

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Wild thing, I think you move me
But I gotta know for sure
Come on and hold me tight
Oh you move me

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Wild thing, I think I need you
But I gotta know for sure
Come on and squeeze me tight
Oh I need it

Wild thing
You make my heart sing
You make everything
Come on, wild thing

Metallica › The Unforgiven

New blood joins this earth
And quikly hes subdued
Through constant pain disgrace
The young boy learns their rules

With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on hes known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will theyll take away

What Ive felt
What Ive known
Never shined through in what Ive shown
Never be
Never see
Wont see what might have been

What Ive felt
What Ive known
Never shined through in what Ive shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub the unforgiven

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please them all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
Hes battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What Ive felt
What Ive known
Never shined through in what Ive shown
Never be
Never see
Wont see what might have been

What Ive felt
What Ive known
Never shined through in what Ive shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub the unforgiven

You labeled me
Ill label you
So I dub the unforgiven
