[rmrdaddy]

and yours... "It's nice to go Trav'ling" Frank Sinatra?

Nicely done. Yes, F.A.S from the Come Fly With Me LP, October 1957.

 

[Real Swell Gal]

I didn't go all the way through this thread to see if this one has been done yet.......


I'm stepping out, my dear,
To breathe an atmosphere
That simply reeks with class.
And I trust
That you'll excuse my dust
When I step on the gas.

Top hat, white tie and tails - Irving Berlin


try this one:

The moon that lingered over London Town
Poor puzzled world, he wore a frown
Oh how could he know we two were so in love
The whole wide world seemed upside down

 

[Paisley]

...when the nightengales sang in Barkley Square. Sung by Bobby Darin, among others.


I know some of you know this one:
"When the congregation starts to sing, nothin' in this world don't mean a thing."

 

[59Lark]

here is a old line from a fifities song

He had a hopasicle it took off like a ***, that fool was the terror of highway 101,

or as a teenager, a old friend used to play this song on his tape deck, if you really want to go, i need gas money, cant remember the rest of that one.

cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride chasing the devils herd.

I know some of you know this one:
"When the congregation starts to sing, nothin' in this world don't mean a thing."

I bet this one was popular during the swing revival.

I bet this one was popular during the swing revival.

Well I had to cheat but I know it now.

Not gonna give it away though.

 

[Paisley]

A few more clues...

"Have you ever seen a church begin to rock?"

"Have you ever heard a sermon stir your soul?"

 

[TimBer]

Looks like no one has chimed in for awhile

Here's my offering:
"Here comes that man with all the news. Box back coat and button shoes. Paid up with his union dues. _______ what __ _________ about ___ _______."

 

[Richard Weiler]

Well, speaking of haunting 40's novelty tunes -

If I were as high as the moon in the sky
I would look down on you and say...

Note that the following line is definitely not the title!

Just found the song: "Teddy Powell" "Serenade to a Maid"
