The three charming syncopators
from the sunny South,
the Boswell sisters,
bringing you good cheer with Let
Me Sing and I'm Happy.
What care I who makes the
laws of a nation?
Follow them, follow them,
let those who will take care
of its rights and wrongs.
Fa -da -da -da -dum, what can I,
who cares, fa -da -dum,
for the world's af fairs,
as long as I can sing its pop
ular song.
Ohhhh....
Let me sing a funny song
With crazy words that roll along
And if my song can scorch you less
then I'm happy
Happy happy happy
Let me sing a sad refrain
A broken heart that loves in vain
And if my song can start you cryin',
I'm happy.
Let me croon a low -down blues
to lift you out of your sleep.
If my song can
reach your shoes,
start you tappin' your feet,
I'm happy.
Let me sing of Dixie charms,
of cotton fields,
and Mavis lawns,
and if my song can make you homesick,
I'm happy.
Let me sing a funny song,
with crazy words that roll along.
Fa la la la la la,
fa la la la la la la,
fa la la la la la la la.
If our song can start you laughing,
we're happy, boy, we're happy.
Let me sing the sad refrain
Of broken hearts that loved in vain
Oh, don't ever say we're through.
If my song can start you cryin' with happy,
Then the moon,
the low -down moon,
is in one of your dream s.
I've got those farewells blues,
those blues.
I've got those farewell blues, those blues, oh,
I've got those farewell blues, those blues,
those blues, those blues.
Let me sing of Dixie's charms,
of cobbled fields
and mammy's arms.
Mammy, oh my mammy,
mammy.
I'd walk a million miles for one
of your smiles.
If our song has made you homesick,
we're happy.
