Andrews Sisters Danny Kaye – Civilization (Bongo Bongo Bongo)
Civilization (Bongo, Bongo, Bongo)
The Andrews Sisters with Danny Kaye
– written by Bob Hilliard and Carl Sigman
– as recorded September 27, 1947 in Los Angeles by The Andrews Sisters
with Danny Kaye and Vic Schoen His Orchestra.
Each morning, a missionary advertises neon sign
He tells the native population that civilization is fine
And three educated savages holler from a bamboo tree
That civilization is a thing for me to see
So bongo, bongo, bongo, I dont wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, Im so happy in the jungle, I refuse to go
Dont want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells, landlords, I make it clear
That no matter how they coax him, Ill stay right here
I looked through a magazine the missionarys wife concealed (Magazine? What happens?)
I see how people who are civilized bung you with automobile (You know you can get hurt that
way Daniel?)
At the movies they have got to pay many coconuts to see (What do they see, Darling?)
Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me
So bongo, bongo, bongo, he dont wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, hes so happy in the jungle, he refuse to go
Dont want no penthouse, bathtub, streetcars, taxis, noise in my ear
So, no matter how they coax him, Ill stay right here
They hurry like savages to get aboard an iron train
And though its smokey and its crowded, theyre too civilized to complain
When theyve got two weeks vacation, they hurry to vacation ground (What do they do, Darling?)
They swim and they fish, but thats what I do all year round
So bongo, bongo, bongo, I dont wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no
Bingo, bangle, bungle, Im so happy in the jungle, I refuse to go
Dont want no jailhouse, shotgun, fish-hooks, golf clubs, I got my spears
So, no matter how they coax him, Ill stay right here
They have things like the atom bomb, so I think Ill stay where I "ahm"
Civilization, Ill stay right here!

Al Jolson – Ma Blushing Rosie Lyrics
Theres a little bunch of sweetness,
That I long to call my bride.
And believe me Im not happy,
Lest my babys by my side.
Her baptismal name was Rosie,
But she puts the rose to shame.
And almost every night,
youll here me call her name.
Chorus
Rosie, you are my posie,
you are my hearts bouquet,
Come out here in the moonlight,
Theres something sweet love,
I wanna say.
Your honey boy Im waiting,
Those ruby lips to greet
Dont be so captivating
My blushing rosie
My Posie sweet.
Rosie, you are my posie,
You are, my hearts bouquet
Come out, here in the moonlight
Theres something sweet love.
Im gonna sing about my baby,
Your honey, your boy Im waiting
Those rubies, those lips to greet
Dont be so captivating,
My blushin rosie,
My posie sweet.

Andrew Sisters – Rum And Coca-Cola Lyrics
Rum and coca-cola
If you ever go down Trinidad
They make you feel so very glad
Calypso sing and make up rhyme
Guarantee you one real good fine time
Drinkin rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin for the Yankee dollar
Oh, beat it man, beat it
Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
They got the young girls all goin mad
Young girls say they treat em nice
Make Trinidad like paradise
Drinkin rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin for the Yankee dollar
Oh, you vex me, you vex me
From Chicachicaree to Monas Isle
Native girls all dance and smile
Help soldier celebrate his leave
Make every day like New Years Eve
Drinkin rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin for the Yankee dollar
Its a fact, man, its a fact
In old Trinidad, I also fear
The situation is mighty queer
Like the Yankee girl, the native swoon
When she hear der Bingo croon
Drinkin rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin for the Yankee dollar
Out on Manzanella Beach
G.I. romance with native peach
All night long, make tropic love
Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off
Drinkin rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin for the Yankee dollar
Its a fact, man, its a fact
Rum and Coca-Cola
Rum and Coca-Cola
Workin for the Yankee dollar.

Ames Brothers – Santa Claus Is Coming To Town Lyrics
You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, Im tellin you why
Santa Claus is comin to town
Hes makin a list and checkin it twice
And gonna find out whos naughty or nice
Santa Claus is comin to town
He sees you when youre sleeping
He knows when youre awake
He knows if youve been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, Im tellin you why
Santa Claus is comin to town
With the little tin horns and little toy drums
Roody-toot-toots and rummy-tum-tums
Santa Claus is comin to town
And the curly haired dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats and kiddy cars too
Santa Claus is comin to town
The kids in girl and boy land
Will have a jubilee
Their gonna build a toyland town
All around the Christmas tree
So, you better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, Im a-tellin you why
Santa will be peepin
Kiddies better be sleepin
Santa Claus is comin to town…

Al Martino – Living A Lie Lyrics
Why cry when she tells you shes leaving?
A teardrop or two wont keep her loving you
Be grateful shes gone, no more to lead you on
Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
You cant change her mind with your grievin
Its wrong to pretend, let it end
This first love may die but youve still got time, give it one more try
And thats better than living a lie
Be grateful shes gone, no more to lead you on
Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
This first love may die but youve still got time, give it one more try
And thats better than living a lie
And thats better than livin a lie.

Al Martino – Speak Softly Love (Love Theme From Godfather) Lyrics
Speak softly love
And hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words
The tender trembling moments start
Were in our world
Our very own
Sharing a love that only
Few have ever known
Wine colored days, warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights, when we are one
Speak softly love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make
Will live until we die
My life is yours
And all because
You came into my world with
Love so softly love
[Musical interlude]
Speak softly love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make
Will live until we die
My life is yours
And all because
You came into my world with
Love so softly love.

Ames Brothers – No Moon At All Lyrics
No moon at all, what a night
Even lightnin bugs have dimmed their lights
Stars have disappeared from sight
And theres no moon at all
Dont make a sound, its so dark
Even Fido is afraid to bark
What a perfect chance to park
And theres no moon at all
Should we want atmosphere for inspiration, dear
One kiss will make it clear
That tonight is right and bright moonlight might interfere
No moon at all way up above
This is nothin like they told us of
Just to think we fell in love
And theres no moon at all
<instrumental interlude>
Should we want atmosphere for inspiration, dear
One kiss will make it clear
That tonight is right and bright moonlight might interfere
No moon at all up above
Aww, this is nothin like they told us of
Just to think we fell in love
And theres no moon at all
Aww, theres no moon at all
There is no moon at all
No moon at all.

Andrew Sisters – Rumors Are Flying Lyrics
Andrews Sisters Les Paul Trio – Rumors Are Flying
Rumors are flying
that youve got me sighing
that im in a crazy kind of a daze
a lazy sort of a haze
when i go walking
i hear people talking
they say our affair is not just a passing phase
And they whisper bout the flowers
you keep sending me by the dozen
and they wonder bout the hours
that you spend with me, it keeps them buzzin
Rumors are flying
and im not denying
that people are sure im falling in love with you
cause for a change, darling
all the rumors are true
—— guitar solo ——
And they whisper all about the flowers
the many little flowers you keep sending me by the dozen
and they wonder all about the hours
that you spend with your baby, what do you do-do-do
that keeps em buzzin all the time, all the time
Rumors are flying
and im not denying
that people are sure im falling in love with you
cause for a change, darling
all the rumors are true
