Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week ?cause that?s the night that my sweetie and i Used to dance cheek to cheek I don?t mind sunday night at all ?cause that?s the night friends come to call And monday to friday go fast And another week is past
But saturday night is the loneliest night in the week I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek Until I hear you at the door Until you?re in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Mmmm... saturday night is the loneliest night in the week I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek Until I hear you at the door Until you?re in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door Until you?re in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
How glad the many millions of Annabelles and Lillians Would be to capture me But you had such persistence, you wore down my resistance I fell and it was swell I'm your big and brave and handsome Romeo How I won you I shall never never know It's not that you're attractive But, oh, my heart grew active When you came into view I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie All the day and night-time give me sigh I never had the least notion that I could fall with so much emotion Could you coo, could you care For a cunning cottage we could share The world will pardon my mush 'Cause I have got a crush on you
Could you coo, could you care For a cunning cottage That we could share The world will pardon my mush 'Cause I have got a crush, my baby, on you
If I don't see her each day I miss her Gee, what a thrill each time I kiss her I've got a terrible case On Nancy with the laughin' face
She takes the winter and makes it summer But summer could take some lessons from her Picture a tomboy in lace That's Nancy with the laughin' face
Have you ever heard mission bells ringin'? Well, she'll give you the very same glow When she speaks you would think it was singin' Just hear her say "hello"
I swear to goodness you can't resist her Sorry for you, she has no sister No angel could replace Nancy with the laughin' face
Keep Betty Grable, Lamour, and Turner She makes my heart a charcoal burner It's heaven when I embrace My Nancy with the laughin' face
Way down among Brazilians Coffee beans grow by the billions So they've got to find those extra cups to fill They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
You can't get cherry soda 'cause they've got to fill that quota And the way things are I'll bet they never will They've got a zillion tons of coffee in Brazil
No tea or tomato juice You'll see no potato juice 'cause the planters down in Santos all say "No, no, no"
The politician's daughter Was accused of drinkin' water And was fined a great big fifty dollar bill They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil
[instrumental break]
You date a girl and find out later She smells just like a percolator Her perfume was made right on the grill Why, they could percolate the ocean in Brazil
And when their ham and eggs need savor Coffee ketchup gives 'em flavor Coffee pickles way outsell the dill Why, they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil
No tea, no tomato juice You'll see no potato juice The planters down in Santos all say "No, no, no"
There's a saying old says that love is blind Still we're often told, "Seek and ye shall find" So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet
He's the big affair I cannot forget Only man I ever think of with regret I'd like to add his initial to my monogram Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?
There's a somebody I'm longing to see I hope that he turns out to be Someone who'll watch over me I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood I know I could always be good Someone who'll watch over me
Although he may not be the man some girls think of as handsome To my heart he carries the key Won't you tell him please to put on some speed Follow my lead, oh, how I need Someone to watch over me
It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place Except you and me So set 'em' up Joe, I got a little story I think you should know
We're drinking my friend, to the end Of a brief episode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road
I know the routine, put another nickel In the machine I feel kind of bad, can't you make the music Easy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but it's not In a gentleman's code Make it one for my baby And one more for the road
You'd never know it, but buddy I'm a kind of poet And I've got a lot of things I'd like to say And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me Till it's talked away
Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know your gettin' Anxious to close Thanks for the cheer I hope you didn't mind My bending your ear
But this torch that I found, It's gotta be drowned Or it's gonna explode Make it one for my baby And one more for the road
Day by day I'm falling more in love with you And day by day my love seems to grow There isn't any end to my devotion It's deeper dear by far than any ocean
I find that day by day you're making all my dreams come true And (So) come what may I want you to know I'm (That I am) yours alone, and I'm in love (in love) to stay As we go through the years day by day
(I said, "Day by day") (As we go through the years day by day
A small caf, mam'selle Our rendez-vouz, mam'selle The violins were warm and sweet and so were you, mam'selle And as the night danced by A kiss became a sigh Your lovely eyes Seem to sparkle just like wine does No heart ever yearned the way that mine does, for you And yet I know too well Someday you'll say goodbye Then violins will cry And so will I, mam'selle.
I'm a fool to want you I'm a fool to want you To want a love that can't be true A love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you Such a fool to hold you To seek a kiss not mine alone To share a kiss the Devil has known
Time and time again I said I'd leave you Time and time again I went away But then would come the time when I would need you And once again these words I'd have to say
I'm a fool to want you Pity me, I need you I know it's wrong, it must be wrong But right or wrong I can't get along Without you
Time and time again I said I'd leave you Time and time again I went away But then would come the time when I would need you And once again these words I'd have to say
Take me back, I love you Pity me, I need you I know it's wrong, it must be wrong But right or wrong I can't get along
Put your dreams away for another day And I will take their place in your heart Wishing on a star never got you far And so it's time to make a new start
When your dreams at night Fade before you Then I'll have the right To adore you
Let your kiss confess this is happiness, darling And put all your dreams away
Oh, they say some people long ago Were searching for a diff'rent tune, one that they could croon as only they can They only had the rhythm, so they started swayin' to and fro They didn't know just what to use, this is how the blues really began
They heard the breeze in the trees, singin' weird melodies And they made that the start of the blues And from a jail came the wail of a down-hearted frail And they played that as a part of the blues
From a whippoorwill way upon a hill they took a new note Pushed it through a horn until it was worn into a blue note And then they nursed it, they rehearsed it and then sent out that news That the Southland gave birth to the blues
They nursed it, then they rehearsed it, and they sent out that news That the Southland, they gave birth to the blues
