My Prayer
Glenn Miller
Words by Jimmy Kennedy, music by Georges Boulanger
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on August 18th 1939 with Ray Eberle.
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that‘s divine...
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With the world far away
And our lips close to mine.
Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,
Oh, tell me the words that I’m longing to know...
My prayer and the answer you give,
May they still be the same for as long as we live,
Tha
I Am The Walrus
On the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze.
Sweet, sweet Connie -- doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact.
Up all night with Freddy King
I got to tell you poker's his thing
A-booze 'n ladies keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight
CHORUS
We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town, we'll help you party it down
We're an American band
Four young chaquitas in Omaha
Was waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night
The hotel detective -- he was out-a-sight
Now, these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, "Come on, dudes, let's get it on,"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS
CHORUS
We're an American Band, Ooo-ooo
We're an American Band, Ooo-ooo
We're an American Band, Ooo-ooo
