I've sung about the birds and beesThe daffydown dillies and the shady treesI've covered mother nature inside out.There's the old ox road, the old millstreamPennies from heaven and darn that dreamNothin that I haven't sung about.I've sung some songs of sacrificeI've even sung a few that offered good advice.I've covered all emotions there's no doubt.Like a fine romance, learn to croonSing you sinners, and love in bloom.Nothing that I haven't sung about.There's many a chorusI've sang of Delores.Remember Marquita, and sweet Riorita?There's Mary and Sally, and Rose Mexicali.From Emiline to ClementineThey all got equal time.Yes, musically I've been aroundI've covered almost every townI've always been a vocal gadabout.From the Swanee River, to Galway Bay,Atchison Topeka and the Santa FeLetras de cancionesThere's nothing that I haven't sung about.I found a million dollar baby in a ten cent storeA pockeful of dreams and plenty moreSince anything goes I pick Sweet SueSpose that's the natural thing to do.We began the beguine and I could feel it startI said please be careful that's my heart!In the cool of the evening 'neath the autumn leavesWe call for music, maestro please!There's a great temptation as we cuddle nearAnd I whispered I surrender dear.The bells of St Mary's rang in the steepleFor all the dear friends and gentle kind of people.I said babe I got you under my skinIt had to be you 'cause love walked in.From here on in you'll be going my wayTil the blue of the night meets the gold of the day.I've sung about Dolly, my Rosie of TraleeI've sung of Chicago, and that song from Zhivago.The old Mississippi and Tintipitipi.The winter, summer, spring and fallI've covered one and allAnd I love 'em one and all!I've tried to sing these modern songsI just can't figure where that style belongsThe mad rock, acid rock, country, western, soul.But when I try to sing 'em I ain't nowhereI ain't got the clothes and I ain't got the hairBut I'll keep tryin' til there is no doubtThere ain't nothing, really nothing,That I haven't sung about!
