1.Address Unknown
ADDRESS UNKNOWN
The Ink Spots
Written by: Vaughn Horton/Denver Darling/Gene Autry
- #1 week of November 11, 1939
Address Unknown - not even a trace of you.
Oh what I'd give to see the face of you.
I was a fool to stay away from you so long.
I should have known there'd come a day when you'd be gone.
Address Unknown - oh how could I be so blind?
Who'd think that you would never be hard to find?
From the place of your birth to the ends of the earth
I've searched only to find - only to find - Address Unknown.
(Spoken:)
Address Unknown - honey chile, I ain't even got a trace of ya.
You know one thing?
I'd give anything in the world just to see the face of ya.
I was a fool to stay away from you and everything else so long.
I should have been diplomatic and figured that some day
You'd be solid gone.
Address Unknown - oh how could I be so blind?
Who'd think that you would never be hard to find?
From the place of your birth to the ends of the earth
I've searched only to find - only to find - Address Unknown.

Five versions charted in 1926, two in 1944, and two more in
1945.
MONOLOGUE: I'll be loving you, babe, only always. With a real
crazy love that's

things may not be

That's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour
And not for just a day
Not for just a year but always
3.Blues
Blues
The Ink Spots
This is a rather obscure song. Can't determine who wrote it and
whether anyone
ever charted it as a single in the Top 100. Judging by the
composition and the
lyrics, I'd guess it is a 1930's-type jazz/blues number
generally played by black
musicians. I found it on an Ink Spots 3-LP collection titled
'The Best Of the Ink
Spots' (Murray Hill label-Catalog # 897571. Unfortunately, there
are no liner notes
or writer credits included.
I'm goin back home and get my ham bone boiled some more
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I'm goin back home and get my ham bone boiled some more
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
'cause the way you cook for me, baby
My stomach got sore
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I'm goin' on the river and I'm not gonna take you along
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I'm goin' on the river and I'm not gonna take you along
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
'cause I need somebody to help me sing this song
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I may be blue but I won't be blue no more
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I may be blue but I won't be blue no more
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
'cause when I come home, somebody's gotta go
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
Bye bye , baby, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
Bye bye bye, baby, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
I said bye bye, baby, bye bye baby goodbye
(choo-choo-ah, choo-choo-ah)
4.Do I Worry?
Do I Worry
Ink Spots
Do I worry cause you're stepping out
Do I worry cause you got me in doubt
Though your kisses aren't right, do I give a bag of beans
Do I stay home every night and read my magazine
Am I frantic, cause we lost that spark
Is there panic when it starts turning dark
And when evening shadows creep, do I loose any sleep over you
Do I worry, you can bet your life I do
Do I worry when the iceman calls
Do I worry if Niagra Falls
Though you treat me just like dirt
You think I give a snap
Are my feelings really hurt
When you're sitting in somebody else's lap
Am I curious when the gossip flies
Am I furious bout your little white lies
And when all our evenings end
Cause you got a sick friend that needs you
Do I worry, honey, you know dog gone well I do
Am I frantic, cause we've lost that spark
Is ther panic when it starts turning dark
And when evening shadows creep
Do I lose any sleep over you
Do I worry, you can bet your life, I do
5.Don't Get Around Much Anymore
作词:Edward Ellington, Bob Russell
When I'm not playing solitaire
I take a book down from the shelf
And what with programs on the air
I keep pretty much to myself
Missed the Saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
Couldn't bare it without you
Don't get around much anymore
Oh, darling, I guess
My minds more at ease but never the less
Why stir up memories, been invited all day
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore
Oh, darling, I guess
My minds more at ease but never the less
Why stir up memories, been invited all day
Might have gone but what for
Awfully different without you
Don't get around much anymore
Don't get around much anymore
Don't get around much anymore
6.Honey Moon
Honey Moon
The Ink Spots
ANOTHER obscurity. One cannot tell exactly who may have written
it or who

Honey moon, honey moon
Wonder why you fade so soon
Hearts are broken when you die
Ho-o-0-oney moon
MONOLOGUE: Honey moon, I said honey moon. I wonder why you fade
so
doggone soon. Hearts are broken when YOU die. Honey moon!
Sadder days, wiser men

In the shade of the old apple tree
Where the love in your eyes I could see
When the voice that I heard like the song of a bird
Seemed to whisper sweet music to me
I could hear the dull buzz of the bee
In the blossoms as you said to me
'With a heart that is true, I'll be waiting for you'
'In the shade of the old apple tree'

11.Maybe
作词:Allan Flynn, Frank Madden
Maybe you'll think of me when you are all alone
Maybe the one who is waiting for you
Will prove untrue, then what will you do?
Maybe you'll sit and sigh, wishing that I were near
Then maybe you'll ask me to come back again
And maybe I'll say, 'Maybe'
Maybe you'll think of me when you are all alone
Maybe the one who is waiting for you
Will prove untrue, then what will I do?
Maybe you'll sit and sigh, wishing that I were near
Then maybe you'll ask me to come back again
And maybe I'll say, 'Maybe'

Don't throw bouquets at me
Don't please my folks too much
Don't laugh at my jokes too much
People will say we're in love
Don't sigh and gaze at me
Your sighs are so like mine
And your eyes mustn't glow like mine
People will say we're in love
Don't start collecting things
Give me my rose and my glove
Well, sweetheart, they're suspecting things
People will say we're in love
13.To Each His Own
作词:Ray Evans, Jay Livingston
A rose must remain with the sun and the rain
Or its lovely promise won't come true
To each his own, to each his own
And my own is you
What good is a song if the words just don't belong
And a dream must be a dream for two
No good alone, to each his own
For me there's you
If a flame is to grow there must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you, I know, I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me
Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own, I've found my own
One and only you
If a flame is to grow, there must be a glow
And to open each door there's gotta be a key
I need you, I know, I can't let you go
'Cause honey your touch means too much to me
Two lips must insist on two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own, I've found my own
One and only you

When the swallows come back to Capistrano

作词:Jack Lawrence
If I didn't care more than words can say

In a quaint caravan
There's a lady they call the gypsy

She looked at my hand and told me
My lover was always true
And yet in my heart I knew dear
Somebody else was kissing you
But I'll go there again

作词:Russ Columbo, Clarence Gaskill, Leo Robin
Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break these chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
From one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If someone is sharing those arms with me?
Although she has another, I can't have another
For I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring
If somebody else is sharing those arms with me?
Though you has another, I can't have another
'Cause you see honey, I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love

作词:Nelson Cogane, Sammy Mysels, Dick Robertson
We three, we're all alone
Living in a memory
My echo, my shadow and me
We three, we're not a crowd
We're not even company
My echo, my shadow and me
What good is the moonlight
The silvery moonlight
That shines above?
I walk with my shadow
I talk with my echo
But where is the one I love?
We three, we'll wait for you
Even 'til eternity
My echo, my shadow and me
We three, we're all alone
Seem like we living in a memory
That's my echo, my shadow and me
We three, we ain't no crowd
Fact is we ain't even company
That's my echo, my shadow and me
You know, I've been wondering
What good is the moonlight
That silvery moonlight
That shines way, way up above
Yeah, I walk with my shadow
I talk with my echo
But where is that gal that I love?
We three, we'll wait for you
Even 'til eternity
My echo, my shadow and me
27.Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall
作词:Doris Fisher, Allan Roberts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
Into each heart some tears must fall
But some day the sun will shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their hearts
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much, too much is fallin' in mine
Into each heart some tears must fall
But some day the sun will shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their heart
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
Into each and every life some rain has got to fall
But too much of that stuff is fallin' into mine
And into each heart some tears got to fall
And I know that someday that sun is bound to shine
Some folks can lose the blues in their heart
But when I think of you another shower starts
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is fallin' in mine
28.I'm Making Believe
作词:Mack Gordon, James V. Monaco
I'm making believe that you're in my arms
Though I know you're so far away
Making believe I'm talking to you
Wish you could hear what I say
And here in the gloom of my lonely room
We're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreaming
So till my dreams come true
I'll whisper 'Good night'
Turn out the light and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you
I'm making believe that you're in my arms
Though I know you're so far away
Making believe I'm talking to you
Wish you could hear what I say
And here in the gloom of my lonely room
We're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreaming
So till my dreams come true
I'll whisper 'Good night'
Turn out the light and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you
And here in the gloom of my lonely room
We're dancing like we used to do
Making believe is just another way of dreaming
So till my dreams come true
I'll whisper 'Good night'
Turn out the light and kiss my pillow
Making believe it's you
29.I'm Beginning to See the Light
作词:Duke Ellington, Don George, Johnny Hodges, Harry James
I never cared much for moonlit skies
I never wink back at fireflies
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light
I never went in for afterglow
Or candlelight on the mistletoe
But now when you turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light
Used to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and caused a spark
That's a four-alarm fire now
I never made love by lantern-shine
I never saw rainbows in my wine
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light
I never cared much for moonlit skies
I never wink back at fireflies
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light
I never went in for afterglow
Or candlelight on the mistletoe
But now when you turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light
Used to ramble through the park
Shadowboxing in the dark
Then you came and caused a spark
That's a four-alarm fire now
I never made love by lantern-shine
I never saw rainbows in my wine
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light
Beginning to see the light
Beginning to see the light
Now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light
30.My Prayer
作词:Georges Boulanger, James B Kennedy
My prayer is to linger with you at the end of the day
In a dream that's divine, my prayer is a rapture in blue
With a world far away and your lips close to mine
Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give, may they still be the same
For as long as we live, that you'll always be there at the end
of my prayer
My prayer is to linger with you at the end of each day
In a dream that's divine, my prayer is a rapture in blue
With a world far away and your lips close to mine
Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give, may they still be the same
For as long as we live, that you'll always be there at the end
of my prayer
31.I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire
作词:Bennie Benjamin, Eddie Durham, Sol Marcus, Eddie Seiler
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
In my heart I have but one desire
And that one is you, no other will do
I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of
Believe me
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart
32.The Best Things In Life Are Free
The moon belongs to everyone
The best things in life are free
The stars belong to everyone
They gleam there for you and me
The flowers in spring
The robins that sing
The sunbeams that shine
They're yours, they're mine
And love can come to everyone
The best things in life are free
Honey, the moon belongs to everyone
You know the best things in life are free
And the stars, they belong to everyone
They're shining up there for you and for me
The flowers in spring
The robins that sing
The sunbeams that shine
They're yours, they're mine
And love can come to everyone
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
33.Bless You
Bless you, for being an angel
Just when it seemed that heaven was not for me
Bless you for building a new dream
Just when my old dream crumbled so helplessly
In that vine covered chapel on the hill
Your face was a hymn that lingered still
So bless you, my darling, my angel
Heaven is mine and life is divine with you
So bless you, my darling, my angel
Heaven is mine and life is divine with you
