"Just One Of Those Things"

"Just One Of Those Things"



It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
Just one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Just one of those things

If we'd thought a of the end of it
When we started painting the town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!"

"Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!"



Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How you'll hate going out in the storm
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home you'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And, dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home you'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And, dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow

"Let's Face The Music And Dance"

"Let's Face The Music And Dance"



There may be trouble ahead,
But while there's music and moonlight,
And love and romance,
Let's face the music and dance.
Before the fiddlers have fled,
Before they ask us to pay the bill,
And while we still have that chance,
Let's face the music and dance.
Soon, we'll be without the moon,
Humming a different tune, and then,
There may be teardrops to shed,
So while there's music and moonlight,
And love and romance,
Let's face the music and dance

"Let's Fly Away"

"Let's Fly Away"



Let's fly away
And find a land that's warm and tropic,
Where Roosevelt is not the topic
All the live long day!

Let's fly away
And find a land that's so provincial,
We'll never hear what Walter Winchell
Might be forced to say!

I'll make your life sublime,
Far across the blue.
I'll take up all your time
Compromising you!

Let's not delay,
Make Mother Nature our Messiah,
New York is not for us,
Let's fly away!

I'll make your life sublime,
Far across the blue.
I'll take up all your time
Compromising you!

Let's not delay,
Make Mother Nature our Messiah,
New York is not for us,
Let's fly away,
Let's fly away!

"Let's Take A Walk Around The Block"

"Let's Take A Walk Around The Block"



I never traveled further North
Than old Van Courtland Park
And never further South than the aquarium
I've seen the charm of Jersey City,
But first let me remark
I saw it from the empire state solarium

But we've been putting nickels
In the postal savings bank
And when those nickels pile up,
We can toddle off in swank
And I don't mean an ordinary cook's tour
I mean a cabin de-luxe tour

Someday we'll go places
New lands and new faces
The day we quit punching the clock
The future looks pleasant,
But at present
Let's take a walk around the block.

You're just the companion
I want at Grand Canyon
for throwing old blades down the rock
The money we have`ll go for travel
Meantime, let's walk around the block.

Gangway, we'll begin
When our, ship comes in
I'll sit on your lap
All over the map

To London in May time
To Venice in play time
To Paris in time for a frock
To Boston in bean time
Darling, meantime
Let's take a walk around the block.

In Winter at Christmas,
We'll visit the isthmus
And see how they lock up a lock
And then in Caracas, on a jackass,
We'll take a ride around the block.

We'll keep to our promise,
To visit St. Thomas
And then at Jamaica we'll dock
The prospect is thrilling,
Still I am willing,
Just now to walk around the block.

Onward, to Cathay
Then to Mandalay
Boom on to Bangkok
Perhaps Vladivostok

We'll send the folks cables,
Accumulate labels,
Buy souvenirs till we're in hock,
But since we are flat in old Manhattan
Let's take a walk around the block.

"Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries"

"Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries"



People are queer, they're always crowing, scrambling and rushing about
Why don't they stop someday, address themselves this way?
Why are we here? Where are we going? It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go
So keep repeating it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious; it's too mysterious
At eight each morning I have got a date
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State
You'll admit it's not the berries
In a building that's so tall
There's a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this
Life is just a bowl of... aw, nuts!
So live and laugh at it all!

"Limehouse Blues"

"Limehouse Blues"



And those weird China blues
Never go away
Sad, mad blues
For all the while they seem to say
Oh, Limehouse kid
Oh, oh, Limehouse kid
Goin' the way
That the rest of them did
Poor broken blossom
And nobody's child
Haunting and taunting
You're just kind of wild
Oh, Limehouse blues
I've the real Limehouse blues
Can't seem to shake off
Those real China blues
Rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown
That is the story
Of old Chinatown
Rings on your fingers
And tears for your crown
That is the story
Of old Chinatown

"Lollipops And Roses"

"Lollipops And Roses"



Tell her you care each time you speak.
Make it her birthday each day of the week.
Bring her nice things, sugar and spice things,
roses and lollipops and lolipops and roses.

One day she'll smile, next day she'll cry,
minute to minute you'll never know why.
Coax her, pet her, better yet, get her
roses and lollipops and lolipops and roses.

We try acting grown up, but as a rule
we're all little children fresh from school.
So carry her books. That's how it starts.
Fourteen or forty they're kids in their hearts.
Keep them handy, flowers and candy,
roses and lollipops and lolipops and roses.

"Love Me Or Leave Me"

"Love Me Or Leave Me"



This affair is killin' me
I can't stand uncertainly
Tell me now I've got to know
Whether you want me to stay or to go

Love me or leave me
Or let me be lonely
You won't believe me, I love you only
I'd rather be lonely
Then happy with someone else

You might find the night time
The right time for kissin'
But night time is my time
For just reminiscin'
Regrettin' instead of forgettin'
With somebody else

There'll be no one
Unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue
I want your love
But I don't want to borrow
To have it today to give it back tomorrow
For your love is my love
There's no love for nobody else
