(louis jordan, timmie rodgers) Knock me a kiss, you'll never miss When i'm ready to go. But if you can't smile and say yes, Please don't cry and say no! Squeeze me a squoze in these fine clothes, Mmmm...i love you so. But if you can't smile and say yes, Please don't cry and say no! When i ask for a date, the answer is no. You don't know what you're saying. Don't you know the war's on,Everything is rationed, How 'bout that jive, keep me alive? Baby, let bygones be bygones, 'cause men are scarce as nylons. And if you can't smile and say yes, Please don't cry and say no! ~interlude~ Baby, let bygones be bygones, 'cause men are scarce as nylons. And if you can't smile and say yes, Please don't cry and say no, no, no, baby Please don't cry and say no.
Just found joy Im as happy as a baby boy, baby boy With another brand new choo-choo choy When I met my sweet lorraine, lorraine, lorraine. A pair of eyes That are brighter tham the summer sky When you see them, youll realize Why I love my sweet lorraine. Now when its rainin, I dont miss the sun Because its in my babys smile, whoa ho And to think that Im the lucky one That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho Each night I pray That no one will steal her heart away I cant wait until that lucky day When I marry sweet lorraine. ~interlude~ Now when its rainin I dont miss the sun Because its in my babys smile, whoa ho And to think that Im the lucky one That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho Each night I pray That no one will steal her heart away I cant wait until that lucky day When I marry sweet lorraine.
(harold arlen, billy rose, e. y. harburg) Said it is only a paper moon Sailing over a cardboard sea, But it wouldn't be make believe If you believed in me. Say it is only a canvas sky Hanging over a muslin tree, But it wouldn't be make believe If you believed in me. Without your love, It's a honky-tonk parade. Without your love, It's a melody played in a penny arcade.It's a barnum and bailey world, Just as phony as it can be, But it wouldn't be make believe If you believed in me. ~interlude~ Without your love, It's a honky-tonk parade.
