Songs I Sing to My Sweetheart

Thought I would write down some of the lyrics of songs that I sing, to my darlin,’ Billie, when I am taking care of her. Sometimes she just doesn’t want to talk, nor even answer questions, so I go about checking her vitals and doing what is needed and sing her a song or two. I realize I have changed some of the words just to fit us, so don’t worry if they are not exact.

Hey Good Lookin

Hey good lookin'

What ya got cookin?

How’s about cookin' something up with me

Oh, sweet baby

Don't you think maybe?

We could find us a brand new recipe

I’ve got a hot-rod Ford and a two-dollar bill

And I know a spot right over the hill

There’s Sodie-pop and the dancin’s free

Won’t you come along and go with me

I said hey good lookin'

What ya got cookin?

How about cookin' something up with me?

[My first car, bought during my senior year in GHS, was a hot-rod Ford and Billie was with me when I bought it. She snuggled up to me when we drove it away from the dealer ship, after we got out of sight of my Grandmother. J]

Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue

Five foot two, eyes of blue

But oh what those five foot could do

Has anybody seen my gal?

Turned up nose and turned down hose

Flapper yes sir one of those

Has anybody seen my gal?

Now if you run into a five foot two covered with fur

Diamond ring and all those things

Bet your life it isn't her.

Could she love could she woo

Could she could she could she coo

Has anybody seen my gal?

                   [If you knew Billie, you would know this song fits her to a T.]

Let Me Call You Sweetheart

Let me call you sweetheart

I’m in love with you

Let me hear you whisper that you love me too

Keep the love light glowing in your eyes so true

Let me call you sweetheart

I’m in love with you

Let me call you sweetheart

I’m in love with you

Let me hear you whisper that you love me too

Keep the love light glowing in your eyes so true

Let me call you sweetheart

I’m in love with you

I’m in Love with You, Honey

I'm in love with you, hon-ey.

Say you love me, too, hon-ey.

No one else will do, hon-ey;

Seems fun-ny, but it's true.

Loved you from the start, hon-ey.

Bless your little heart, hon-ey.

Ev'ry day would be so sun-ny,

Hon-ey, when I'm with you.

You Are My Sunshine

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are grey

You'll never know dear

How much I love you

So please don't take

My sunshine Away

The other night dear

As I lay sleeping

I dreamed I held you in my arms

When I awoke dear

I was mistaken

And I held

My head

And cried

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are grey

You'll never know dear

How much I love you

Please don't take

My sunshine Away
