That's For Me lyrics - Bing Crosby

The light-hearted gay
Kind of charm you display
That's for me.
The wonderful sly
Little trick with your eye
That's for me.
What a feather in my hat
If I could gratify your wish;
Do you like the movies,
Or what is your favorite dish?
The tilt of your chin,
When you chuckle or grin
That's for me
You might as well know
That wherever you go,
There I'll be
Just to make sure you keep your heart
Alone and fancy free.
No one else can have it; that's for me

The Birth Of The Blues lyrics - Bing Crosby

Oh! they say some people long ago
Were searching for a diff'rent tune,
One that they could croon
As only they can.

They only had the rhythm so
They started swaying to and fro.
They didn't know just what they had
And that is how the blues really began:

They heard the breeze in the trees
Singing weird melodies
And they made that
The start of the blues.

And from a jail came the wail
Of a down hearted frail,
And they played that
As part of the blues.

From a whippoorwill out on a hill,
They took a new note,
Pushed it through a horn
'til it was born into a blue note.

And then they nursed it, rehearsed it,
And gave out the news
That the south land
Gave birth to the blues!

The Christmas Song lyrics - Bing Crosby

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos

Everybody knows
A turkey and some mistletoe
Will help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
An' goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know
How to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said
Many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you

The Day You Came Along lyrics - Bing Crosby

My heart went leaping
The day you came along
Forgot my weeping
The day you came along
Before I knew it I hummed a little song
The day you came along

I only drifted before you came along
The fog was lifted
Because you came along
I sent the blackbirds right back where they belong
The day you came along

Men have conquered nations
Other men have set them free
Pioneers across the sea
You can turn the pages through the ages but for me
Twas the most eventful day in history

Two souls were mated
The day you came along, a world created
The day you came along
One glance convinced me
I knew I wasn't wrong
The day you came along

Two souls were mated
The day you came along, a world created
The day you came along
One glance convinced me
I knew I wasn't wrong
The day you came along

Love came this day
The day you came along

The First Noel lyrics - Bing Crosby

The first Noel
The angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields as they lay

In fields where they lay
Keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
That was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

(They looked up)
(And saw a star)
(Shining in the east)
(Beyond them far)

(And to the earth)
(It gave great light)
(And so it continued)
(Both day and night)

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

This by the light
Of that same star
Three wise men came
From the country far

To seek for a King
Was their intent
And to follow the star
Wherever it went

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Oh Noel

The Road To Morocco lyrics - Bing Crosby

We're off on the road to Morocco
This taxi is tough on the spine (hit me with a band-aid, Dad)
Where they're goin', why we're goin', how can we be sure
I'll lay you eight to five that we'll meet Dorothy Lamour (yeah, get in line)

Off on the road to Morocco
Hang on till the end of the line (I like your jockey. Quiet)
I hear this country's where they do the dance of the seven veils
We'd tell you more (uh-ah) but we would have the censor on our tails (good boy)

We certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

We're off on the road to Morocco
Well look out, well clear the way, 'cause here we come
Stand by for a concussion
The men eat fire, sleep on nails and saw their wives in half
It seems to me there should be easier ways to get a laugh
(shall I slip on my big shoes?)

Off on the road to Morocco
Hooray! Well blow a horn, everybody duck
Yeah. it's a green light, come on boys

We run into Villians but we haven't any fears
Paramount will protect us cause we're signed for five more years(yeah)
Certainly do get around
Like Webster's Dictionary we're Morocco bound

We certainly do get around
Like a complete set of Shakespeare that you get
in the corner drugstore for a dollar ninety-eight
We're Morocco bound

Or, like a volume of Omar Khayyam that you buy in the
department store at Christmas time for your cousin Julia
We're Morocco bound
(we could be arrested)

The Singing Hills lyrics - Bing Crosby

The singing hills
(Mmm)
Are singing tonight
(Mmm)
And echoing a song of long ago

The singing hills
(Mmm)
Were singing that night
(Mmm)
That lovely night you said, "I love you so"

The wind in the valley joined in our sweet refrain
But now the wind and I
Each night we cry, "Come back again"

Though you are gone
(Mmm)
The song lingers on
(Mmm)
Still echoing among the singing hills

And a partridge in a pear tree.

Too Romantic lyrics - Bing Crosby

I'm so afraid of night 'cause I'm too romantic.
Moonlight and stars can make such a fool of me.
You know you're much too near, and I am too romantic,
Wouldn't I be a sight on a bended knee.
I'm startled when you whisper, I'll run if you should sigh,
I must be so careful, or I'll kiss my heart goodbye.
You shouldn't let me dream 'cause I'm too romantic,
Don't make me fall unless it could all come true.

Tumbling Tumbleweeds lyrics - Bing Crosby

I'm a roaming cowboy riding all day long,
Tumbleweeds around me sing their lonely song.
Nights underneath the prairie moon,
I ride along and sing this tune.

See them tumbling down
Pledging their love to the ground
Lonely but free I'll be found
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds.

Cares of the past are behind
Nowhere to go but I'll find
Just where the trail will wind
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds.

I know when night has gone
That a new world's born at dawn.

I'll keep rolling along
Deep in my heart is a song
Here on the range I belong
Drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds.

Twilight On The Trail lyrics - Bing Crosby

When it's twilight on the trail,
And I jog along,
The world is like a dream
And the ripple of the stream is my song

When it's twilight on the trail,
And I rest once more,
My ceiling is the sky
And the grass on which I lie is my floor

Never ever have a nickel in my jeans,
Never ever have a debt to pay,
Still I understand what real contentment means,
Guess I was born that way

When it's twilight on the trail,
And my voice is still,
Please plant this heart of mine
Underneath the lonesome pine on the hill

(Underneath the lonesome pine on the hill)
When it's twilight on the trail

Wait Till The Sun Shines Nellie lyrics - Bing Crosby

On a Sunday morn sat a maid forlorn
With her sweetheart by her side,
Through the windowpane, she looked at the rain,
"We must stay home, Joe," she cried.
"There's a picnic, too, at the old Point View,
It's a shame it rained today."
Then the boy drew near, kissed away each tear,
And she heard him softly say:
"Wait till the sun shines, Nellie,
When the clouds go drifting by,
We will be happy, Nellie,
Don't you sigh.
Down Lover's Lane we'll wander,
Sweethearts you and I.
Wait till the sun shines, Nellie,
Bye and bye."
"How I long," she sighed, "for a trolley ride
Just to show my brand new gown."
Then she gazed on high with a gladsome cry
For the sun came shining down.
And she looked so sweet on the big front seat
As the car sped on its way,
And she whispered low,
"Say you're all right, Joe,
You just won my heart today."

Walking The Floor Over You lyrics - Bing Crosby

You left me and you went away,
You said that you'd be back in just a day,
You've broken your promise and you left me all alone,
I don't know why you did dear, but I do know that you're gone.

I'm walking the floor over you,
I can't sleep a wink that is true.
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two,
Walking the floor over you.

Now darling you know I love you well,
I love you more than I can ever tell,
I thought that you wanted me and always would be mine,
But you went and left me here with troubled mind.

I'm walking the floor over you,
I can't sleep a wink that is true.
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two,
Walking the floor over you.

Now someday you may be lonesome too,
Walking the floor is good for you.
Just keep right on walking and it won't hurt you to cry,
Remember that I love you and I will until I die.

I'm walking the floor over you,
I can't sleep a wink that is true.
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two,
Walking the floor over you.

We'll Rest At The End Of The Trail lyrics - Bing Crosby

We're weary and tired, our work is all through
But we'll rest at the end of the trail
We'll stand by the fire when there's nothin' to do
When we rest at the end of the trail

If we feel like ropin', we'll hitch to a star
So just keep on ropin', it's not very far
We're weary and tired, our work is all through
But we'll rest at the end of the trail

The road is mighty dusty, old pal
The sun is sinkin' down below the range
We're still together, trusty old pal
Ridin' the trail so strange

If we feel like ropin', we'll hitch to a star
So just keep on ropin', it's not very far
We're weary and tired, our work is all through
But we'll rest at the end of the trail

When A Child Is Born lyrics - Bing Crosby

A ray of hope flikkers in the sky
A shiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
A rosy fume settles all around
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn
This comes to pass when a child is born
A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds have changed whisperin the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born

[Spoken]

And all of this happened
Because whe world is waiting
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow, no one knows
But a child that would grow up and turn tears to laughter
Hate to love, war to peace
And everyone to everyone's neighbour
Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever
It's all a dream and illusion now
It must come true, sometimes soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
When a child is born
