When I think that you're the one boy I adore,
Gratitude inflates my bosom more and more.
When I see your style and grace,
Analyse your smiling face,
Then I know how much I must be thankful for
Thank your father,
Thank your mother,
Thank them both for meeting up with one another.
Thank the horse that pulled the buggy that night,
Thank your ma and pa for feeling just right.
Thank the June night,
Thank the moonlight
That caressed them from up above;
And thank goodness for their marriage
And for the baby carriage,
Or I'd have no-one to love.
Oh, thank your father, -
Thank them both for meeting up with one another.
Thank the horse that pulled the buggy that night,
Thank your ma and pa for feelin' just right.
Thank the June night,
Thank the moonlight
That caressed them from above;
And thank goodness for their marriage
And for the baby carriage,
Or I'd have no-one to love.
Why do I sing with feeling,
A feeling I can't hide?
It's time I was revealing
What I've been keeping inside;
Twenty million people are listening to my song,
But I'm only singing to one.
Twenty million people will know that I belong
To no-one else under the sun.
Every city street and country byway,
Can hear my cheery hello,
But they're not aware it's only my way
Of letting him know
That I need him so
Twenty million people will pass the word along
And ask him to please listen in;
Maybe he'll discover how lonely I've been.
And even if he hasn't heard,
Maybe he will take the word
Of twenty million people who know I'm just singin' to one.
Twenty million people will pass the word along
And ask him to please listen in;
Maybe he'll discover how lonely I've been!
And even if he hasn't heard,
Maybe he will take the word
Of twenty million people who know I'm just singin' to one,
Singin' my song to one!
I love a ukulele
I love to strum it gaily
I love to hum while I strum, strum, strum, strum
I know the song's Hawaiian
Starts my sweet sweetie sighin'
We softly harmonize as we hum
I know what I'm doin'
I never go wrong
At home or canoeing,
I'm strumming along
Some sweet Hawaiian ditty,
Gee, don't they write 'em pretty
I love a ukulele song
There are certain things that keep me guessing,
Though I try real hard to find them out,
Well, I don't understand, so I'm confessing,
That I don't know just what it's all about.
See, I don't know the bad things from the good,
Because my mother never told me all she should.
A man showed me a lavaliere,
He says "It's yours if you kiss me, dear,"
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
I kissed him once, and he asked for more,
Next week he's bringing the jewelry store;
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
Now, I was in the parlor, with this fellow last night,
And I know why he kissed me and he squeezed me so tight;
But I don't understand a bit,
When he said, "Baby, you sure have 'It',"
What's 'It'?
Oh, is there anything wrong in that?
A man loaned me his Cadillac,
And I said that I would bring it back,
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
Well, it was so cold in that great big boat,
So, I just went and took his raccoon coat,
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
I took my mother driving on that very same day,
And she said, "Dear, you must return that car right away!"
But the funniest thing, you'll never guess,
I forgot his name and his address!
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
Oh, tell me, tell me, please, was there anything wrong in that, huh?
Now, I ask, was there anything wrong with that?
Such questions drive me crazy, every day, something new,
My poor brain gets hazy, don't know what to do!
[Scatting]
Oh, tell me, was there anything wrong in that?
