Glenn Miller songs Lyrics

Chattanooga choo choo

Step aside partner, it's my day
Bend an ear and listen to my version
(Of a really solid, Tennisee excursion)
Pardon me boys, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
(Yes Yes) Track 29!
Boy you can give me a shine
(Can you afford to board, the Chattanooga Choo Choo?)
I've got my fare
And just a triffle to spare
You leave the Pensilvania station 'bout a quarter to four
Read a magazine and then you're in Baltimore
Dinner in the dinner, nothing could be finer
(then to have your ham and eggs in Carolina)
When you hear the whistle blowinf eight to the bar
Then you know that Tennisee is not very far
Shuffle all the coal in
Gotta keep it rollin'
(Whoo Whoo Chattanooga there you are)
There's gonna be, a certain party at the station
Satin and Lace
I used to call funny face
She's gonna cry
Untill I tell her that i'll never roam
(So Chattanooga Choo Choo)
Won't you choo choo me home.
Get aboard...
All aboard...
Chattanooga choo choo
Wont you choo choo me home
-------------------------------
Tuxedo Junction 
 
So long town, I'm heading for
Tuxedo Junction now
(instrumental break)
Feelin' low
Rockin' slow
I want to go
Right back where I belong
Way down south in Birmingham
I mean south in Alabam'
There's an old place where people go
To dance the night away
They all drive or walk for miles
To get jive that southern style
It's an old jive that makes you want
To dance till break of day
It's a junction where the town folks meet
At each function in a tux they greet you
Come on down, forget your care
Come on down, you'll find me there
So long town, I'm heading for
Tuxedo Junction now
Tuxedo Junction no

A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE


WHEN TRUE LOVERS MEET IN MAYFAIR SO THE LEGEND TELLS

SONG-BIRDS SING, WINTER TURNS TO SPRING

EVERY WINDING STREET IN MAYFAIR FALLS BENEATH THE SPELL

I KNOW SUCH ENCHANTMENT CAN BE

'CAUSE IT HAPPENED ONE EVENING TO ME

THAT CERTAIN NIGHT THE NIGHT WE MET

THERE WAS MAGIC ABROAD IN THE AIR

THERE WERE ANGELS DINING AT THE RITZ

AND A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

I MAY BE RIGHT I MAY BE WRONG

BUT I'M PERFECTLY WILLING TO SWEAR

THAT WHEN YOU TURNED AND SMILED AT ME

A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

THE MOON THAT LINGERED OVER LONDON TOWN

POOR PUZZLED MOON HE WORE A FROWN

HOW COULD HE KNOW WE TWO WERE SO IN LOVE

THE WHOLE DARNED WORLD SEEMED UP-SIDE DOWN

THE STREETS OF TOWN WERE PAVED WITH STARS
 
IT WAS SUCH A ROMANTIC AFFAIR

AND AS WE KISSED AND SAID GOODNIGHT

A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

HOW STRANGE IT WAS, HOW SWEET AND STRANGE

THERE WAS NEVER A DREAM TO COMPARE

WITH THAT HAZY, CRAZY, NIGHT WE MET

WHEN A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

THIS HEART OF MINE BEAT LOUD AND FAST

LIKE A MERRY-GO-ROUND IN A FAIR

FOR WE WERE DANCING CHEEK TO CHEEK

AND A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

WHEN DAWN CAME STEALING UP ALL GOLD AND BLUE

TO INTERRUPT OUR RENDEZVOUS

I STILL REMEMBER HOW YOU SMILED AND SAID

"WAS THAT A DREAM OR WAS IT TRUE?"

OUR HOMEWARD STEP WAS JUST AS LIGHT

AS THE TAP-DANCING FEET OF ASTAIRE

AND LIKE AN ECHO FAR AWAY

A NIGHTINGALE SANG IN BERKELEY SQUARE

I KNOW CAUSE I WAS THERE

THAT NIGHT IN BERKELEY SQUARE
------------------------
DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE

Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me
No! No! No!
Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Till I come marchin' home

Don't go walkin' down Lover's Lane with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me
No! No! No!
Don't go walkin' down Lover's Lane with anyone else but me
Till I come marchin' home

I just got word from a guy who heard from the guy next door to me
The girl he met just loves to pet and it fits you to-a-tee
So, don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Till I come marchin' home
 
Don't give out with those lips of yours to anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me
No! No! No!
Watch the girls on the foreign shores, you'll have to report to me
When you come marchin' home

Don't hold anyone on your knee, you better be true to me
You better be true to me, you better be true to me
Don't hold anyone on your knee, you're gettin' the third degree
When you come marchin' home

You're on your own where there is no phone and I can't keep tab on you
Be fair to me, I'll guarantee this is one thing that I'll do
I won't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but you
Till you come marchin' home

Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
I know the apple tree is reserved for you and me
And I'll be true till you come marchin' home

---------------------
Fools Rush In

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
And so I come to you, my love, my heart above my head
Though I see the danger there
If there’s a chance for me then I don’t care

Fools rush in where wise men never go
But wise men never fall in love so how are they to know
When we met I felt my life begin
So open up your heart and let this fool rush in
---------------------------------------

The Nearness Of You

It’s not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh, no
It’s just the nearness of you

It isn’t your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh, no
It’s just the nearness of you

When you’re in my arms
And I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you’ll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night
The nearness of you
----------------
That old black magic lyrics

That old black magic has me in its spell,
That old black magic that you weave so well.
Those icy fingers up and down my spine,
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine.

The same old tingle that I feel inside,
And then that elevator starts its ride.
And down and down I go; round and round I go
Like a leaf that’s caught in the tide.

I should stay away, but what can I do?
I hear your name and I’m aflame.
Aflame with such a burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire.

For you’re the lover I have waited for,
The mate that Fate had me created for.
And every time your lips meet mine,
Darling, down and down I go; round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin I’m in
Under that old black magic called love.
------------------------------
Blueberry Hill

I found my freedom on Blueberry Hill
On Blueberry Hill where I found you
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill
It lingered until my dreams came true

The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were never to be

Tho' we're apart you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill

The wind in the willow played
Love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you made
Were only to be

Tho' we're apart you're part of me still
For you were my thrill on Blueberry Hill
