When the Red, Red, Robin Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbin’ Along song lyrics

When the Red, Red, Robin Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbin’ Along was a 1926 popular song written, both words and music, by Harry Woods. The most successful recording of 1926 was by Al Jolson.

The song became the signature song for singer and actress Lillian Roth, who performed it often during the height of her musical career from the late 1920s to the late 1930s. It was later performed by Susan Hayward, playing Roth, in the 1955 biographical film, I’ll Cry Tomorrow.


When the Red, Red Robin Comes Bob-Bob Bobbin’ Along
When the red, red robin comes bob, bob, bobbin’ along, along
There’ll be no more sobbin’ when he starts throbbin’ his old sweet song

Sing You Sinners lyrics, sung by Susan Hayward in I’ll Cry Tomorrow

Brothers, sisters
Listen to what I say
Moanin’ and groanin’
Won’t drive those blues away
Lift up your voices in song
You know you’ve all done wrong

You sinners, drop everything
And let that harmony ring
Up to Heaven
And sing, you sinners

The Dingle Puck Goat lyrics, by Irish circus clown Johnny Patterson

I am a old jobber both foolish and airy,
The green hills of Kerry I long for to see;
I went back to Dingle to buy in some cattle
And wait till I tell you what happened to me.
I entered the Fair of a Saturday morning,
The first thing I met was a long legged goat.
Says I to meself, to commence at me dealing;
Bedad, my bould hero, you’re worth a pound note.

The Garden Where the Praties Grow lyrics, by circus clown Johnny Patterson

Have you ever been in love boys, or did you ever feel the pain,
I’d rather be in gaol myself than be in love again.
Though the girl I loved was beautiful, I’d have you all to know
That I met her in the garden where the praties grow.
