Sweet Georgia Brown
(Kenneth Casey - Maceo Pinkard) No gal made has got a shade on sweet Georgia Brown Two left feet but oh so neat, has sweet Georgia Brown They all sigh and wanna die for sweet Georgia Brown I'll tell you why, you know I don't lie... much It's been said she knocks 'em dead when she lands in town Since she came why it's a shame how she coos 'em down Fellers she can't get are fellers she ain't met Georgia claimed her, Georgia named her Sweet Georgia Brown |

Ev'ry time we say goodbye
I die a little Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little Why the gods above me who must be in the know think so little of me they allow you to go When you're near there's such an air of spring about it I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it there's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor Ev'ry time we say goodbye When you're near there's such an air of spring about it I can hear a lark somewhere begin to sing about it there's no love song finer but how strange the change from major to minor Ev'ry time we say goodbye |

Someday he'll come along
The man I love And he'll be big and strong The man I love And when he comes my way I'll do my best to make him stay He'll look at me and smile I'll understand And in a little while He'll take my hand And though it seems absurd I know we both won't say a word Maybe I shall meet him Sunday Maybe Monday, maybe not Still I'm sure to meet him one day Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day He'll build a little home Just meant for two From which I'll never roam Who would, would you? And so, all else above, I'm waiting for the man I love |

The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do I'm living in a kind of daydream I'm happy as a king And foolish though it may seem To me that's everything The mere idea of you, the longing here for you You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you I see your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It's just the thought of you The very thought of you, my love <instrumental interlude> The mere idea of you, the longing here for you You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you I see your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It's just the thought of you The very thought of you, my love |
