SING BOY SING
(Tommy Sands - Rod McKuen)
TOMMY SANDS (CAPITOL 3867, 1958)

Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away
Whenever I get lonely, sing boy sing
When life goes kind of sadly, sing boy sing
When I start to open my mouth and sing a little song
Makes everything right that once seemed wrong
Even the cuckoo in the clock on the wall
Is just a-having himself a natural ball
Sing boy sing, things are better
Sing boy sing, yeah better
Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away

Now, a girl can make you happy, sing boy sing
But might just make me lonely, sing boy sing
When I start to open my mouth and sing a little song
Makes it easy to forget what she done wrong
I thought I couldn't do it, but I set out to try
Sang a little song and forgot how to cry
Sing boy sing, things are better
Sing boy sing, yeah better
Sing boy sing, sing all your blues away

Well, I done a lot of travelling, sing boy sing
Just like ball of twine unravelling, sing boy sing
When you start to open your mouth and sing a little song
Hop on a choo-choo, let it chug all along
It makes no difference if I get bad news
I just sing this song and say so long blues
Sing boy sing (sing boy)
Sing boy sing (sing boy)
Sing boy sing (sing all your blues away)
