I got rhythm
I got music
I got my love
Who could ask for anything more ?
I got daisies
In green pastures,
I got my love
Who could ask for anything more ?
Ol’Man Trouble,
I don’t mind him.
You won’t find him
‘Round my door.
I got starlight,
I got sweet dreams,
I got my love,
Who could ask for anything more ?
Who could ask for anything more ?
Wonderful, marvelous
You should care for me!
Awfully nice, it’s paradise
How I long to be
You make my life so glamorous
You can’t blame me for feeling amorous!
Wonderful, marvelous
That you should care for me!
Wonderful, marvelous
You should care for me!
Awfully nice, it’s paradise
How I long to be
You make my life so glamorous
You can’t blame me for feeling amorous!
Wonderful, marvelous
That you should care for me!
Fish are jumpin’ and the cotton is high
Oh, your daddy’s rich and your ma is good-lookin’
So hush, little baby, don’t you cry
And you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky
But till that morning, there ain’t nothin’ can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin’ by
And you’ll spread your wings and you’ll take to the sky
But till that morning, there ain’t nothin’ can harm you
With daddy and mammy standin’ by
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No, no they can’t take that away from me
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No, no they can’t take that away from me
Let the drums roll out
Let the trumpet call
While the people shout
“Strike up the band”
Hear the cymbals ring
Callin’ one and all
To the martial swing
Strike up the band
There is work to be done, to be done
Let’s have fun, fun, fun
Come on you son of a son, of a gun
Take your stand
Fall in line, yea a bow
Come along, let’s go
Hey, Leader, strike up the band!
There is work to be done, to be done
Let’s have fun, fun, fun
Come on you son of a gun, of a gun
Take your stand
Fall in line, yea a bow
Come on, let’s go
Hey, Leader, strike up
Hey, Leader, strike up
Hey, Leader, strike up the band!
