Ah!—Oh! ain’t it grand
To live and breathe and let your chest expand
{Good morning Cab!
Good Morning Al!}
Ah!—The skies are blue
The world’s a song, When life is notes to you
I’ve got eternal youth because
I’ve got my heart where it belongs
Don’t care who makes the nation’s laws
Long as I can sing its songs;
I love to sing-a
About the moon-a and the June-a and the spring-a
I love to sing-a
'Bout the sky of blue-a, or a tea for two-a
Anything-a with a swing-a to an I love you-a
I love-a to, I love-a to sing
Give me a song-a
About the son-a-gun, who went and done her wrong-a
But keep it clean-a;
With a cottage small-a by the waterfall-a
Any sob-a that’ll throb-a to a bluebird’s call-a
I love-a to, I love-a to sing
I was born a singin' fool-a
La-de-da, is gonna spot me Got thru Yale, with Boola Boola
La-de-da, Ole microphone’s got me!
I love to sing-a
I love to wake up with the South-a in my mouth-a
And wave the flag-a
With a cheer for Uncle Sammy and another for my mammy
I love to sing!
I love to sing-a
About the moon-a and the June-a and the spring-a
I love to sing-a
'Bout the sky of blue-a, or a tea for two-a
Anything-a with a swing-a to an I love you-a
I love-a to, I love-a to sing
Give me a song-a
About the son-a-gun, who went and done her wrong-a
But keep it clean-a;
With a cottage small-a by the waterfall-a
Any sob-a that’ll throb-a to a bluebird’s call-a
I love-a to, I love-a to sing
I was born a singin' fool-a
La-de-da, {Major Bowes* is gonna spot me Got thru Yale, with Boola Boola
La-de-da, Ole microphone’s got me!
I love to sing-a
I love to wake up with the South-a in my mouth-a
And wave the flag-a
With a cheer for Uncle Sammy and another for my mammy
I love to sing!
