Song lyrics to My Ship, from the musical Lady in the Dark, as recorded by Danny Kaye

My ship has sails that are made of silk
The decks are trimmed with gold
And of jam and spice there’s a paradise in the hold

My ship’s aglow with a million pearls
And rubies fill each bin
The sun sits high in a sapphire sky when my ship comes inRead More »My Ship

Song lyrics to Mandy, performed by Danny Kaye and Vera-Ellen in White Christmas

I was strolling out one evening by the silv’ry moon
I could hear somebody singing a familiar tune
So I stopped a while to listen
Not a word I wanted to miss
It was just somebody serenading something like this

Mandy
There’s a minister handy
And it sure would be dandy
If we’d let him make a fee
So don’t you linger
Here’s the ring for your finger
Isn’t it a humdinger?
Come along and let the wedding chimes
Bring happy times
For Mandy and meRead More »Mandy

Song lyrics to I’ve Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts

Down at an English fair, one evening I was there
When I heard a showman shouting underneath the flair

I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts
There they are, all standing in a row
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head
Give them a twist a flick of the wrist
That’s what the showman saidRead More »I’ve Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts
