Lazy [song lyrics, Bing Crosby]
Song lyrics to Lazy (1924). Music and Lyrics by Irving Berlin. Sung by Bing Crosby in Holiday Inn
Ev’ry time
I see a puppy upon a summer’s day
A puppy dog at play
My heart is filled with envy
That’s because
My heart is yearning to pass the time away
Like that pup
’cause I’m all fed up
And tho’ it’s wrong to be
I long to be

California Here We Come lyrics
Song lyrics to California Here We Come lyrics, written by Buddy DeSylva, Al Jolson and Joseph Meyer in 1924
When the wintry winds starts blowing
And the snow is starting in the Fall
Then my eyes went westward knowing
That’s the place that I love best of all
California I’ve been blue
Since I’ve been away from you
I can’t wait ’till I get blowing
Even now I’m starting in a call
