On a wonderful day like today
I defy any cloud to appear in the sky
Dare any rain drop to plop in my eye
On a wonderful day like today
Dolly, hello, Harry, well, hello Louie
It’s so nice to be back home where I belong
You’re looking swell, Manny, I can tell, Danny

I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me
They’re either too young, or too old
They’re either too gray or too grassy green
The pickings are poor and the crop is lean
What’s good is in the army
What’s left will never harm me
[Verse]
Dozens of girls would storm up
I had to lock my door
Somehow I couldn’t warm up
To one before
Weren’t you on the bill with me
In Dallas?
Or was it the Palace?
Or was it the Strand?
