Minstrel Show Lyrics

  • by

Minstrel Show lyrics – from the minstrel show segment in White Christmas, starring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, Vera-Ellen

[Verse:]
I never cared about the drama
The drama always got my “hammer”
I came from sunny Alabama
Home of the Minstrel show
I think revues are always “bloomers”
They all depend upon costumers
You can have the plays
That are all the craze
At two dollars a throw

Bend It song lyrics

  • by

Song lyrics to Bend It, “Bend It!” by English pop band Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. Written by the band’s management team Ken Howard and Alan Blaikley

Bend it, bend it, just a little bit
And take it easy, show you’re likin’ it
And lover, you know that we’re gonna hit
The heights cause I’m sure that we’re made to fit
Together just like pieces of a
Jigsaw puzzle, what’s the hustle

Hey look me over

  • by

Song lyrics to Hey look me over from the 1960 Broadway musical Wildcat, originally sung by Lucille Ball

Hey look me over, lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover, mortgage up to here
Don’t pass the plate folks, don’t pass the cup
I figure whenever you’re down and out, the only way is up
And I’ll be up like a rosebud high on the vine
Don’t thumb your nose, but take a tip from mine
I’m a little bit short of the elbow room, so let me get me some
And look out world, here I come

Oh Promise Me [song lyrics]

Song lyrics to Oh Promise Me (1889), music by Reginald De Koven, lyrics by Clement Scott

Oh, promise me that someday you and I
Will take our love together to some sky
Where we can be alone and faith renew,
And find the hollows where those flowers grew,
Those first sweet violets of early spring,
Which come in whispers, thrill us both, and sing
Of love unspeakable that is to be;
Oh, promise me! Oh, promise me!
