If You Knew Susie
Song lyrics to If You Knew Susie (1925) Music by Joseph Meyer, Lyrics by Buddy G. DeSylva
If you knew Susie, like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! What a girl
There’s none so classy
As this fair lassie,
Oh! Oh! Holy Moses, what a chassis
We went riding, she didn’t balk
Back from Yonkers
I’m the one that had to walk
If you knew Susie, Like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! What a girl!

High Hopes [song lyrics]
Song lyrics to High Hopes (1959) Written by Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen, written for A Hole in the Head
Next time you’re found, with your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned, so look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think he’ll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can’t
Move a rubber tree plant
But he’s got high hopes, he’s got high hopes
He’s got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

The Look of Love
Is in your eyes
The look your heart can’t disguise
The Look of Love

Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away
