Mockingbird Hill is a song written in 3/4 time by Carl “Calle” Jularbo, with lyrics by George Vaughn Horton

When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill
And kisses the roses ’round my window sill
Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill
Of the birds in the treetops on Mockingbird Hill

Song lyrics to Never Before, Lyrics by Mack David, Music by Jerry Livingston. Performed by Dean Martin in Sailor Beware

Never before has my heart felt a thrill like this
Never before
Never before
Never before has the whole world stood still like this
As I gaze at the face I simply adore
After today when they speak of our paradise
I’ll smile and I’ll say I’ve been there once or twice
For this is that once in a lifetime
The miracle of your kiss
I’ve never loved like this
Never before

The Old Calliope [song lyrics]

Song lyrics to The Old Calliope, Lyrics by Mack David, Music by Jerry Livingston. Performed by Dean Martin (and Jerry Lewis) in Sailor Beware

Editor’s note: So everyone knows: there’s a contention on the proper pronunciation of “calliope”. I’ve heard circus people (and other performers) say “cal-ee-OPE”, while other people pronounce it “cal-I-o-pea”. In this song, “the old calliope” uses the second pronunciation.

Second note: Technically, Jerry Lewis sings along with Dean Martin, but not very often — and then, clownishly. This is clearly Dean’s song. Although the dancing the two perform is clearly a 50/50 proposition.
