Crazy He Calls Me (1949)

lyrics by Bob Russell

music by Carl Sigman

I say I’ll move the mountains
And I’ll move the mountains
If he wants them out of the way
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love I’d say

I say I’ll go through fire
And I’ll go through fire
As he wants it so it will be
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love you see

Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult I’ll do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say I’ll care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to hold up the sky
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love am I

Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult I’ll do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say I’ll care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to hold up the sky
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love am I

 

2nd version

I say I’ll move the mountains
And I’ll move the mountains
If he wants them out of the way
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love I’d say

I say I’ll go through fire
And I’ll go through fire
As he wants it so it shall be
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love you see

Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult I’ll do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say I’ll care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to raise up the sky
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love am I

Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult I’ll do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say I’ll care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to raise up the sky
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love am I

 

3rd version

I say I’ll move the mountains
And I’ll move the mountains
If he wants them out of the way
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love I’d say

I say I’ll go through fire
And I’ll go through fire
As he wants it so it shall be
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love you see

Like the wind that shakes the bough
He moves me with a smile
The difficult I’ll do right now
The impossible will take a little while
I say I’ll care forever
And I mean forever
If I have to hold up the sky
Crazy he calls me
Sure I’m crazy
Crazy in love am I

Comes Love

Lew Brown & Sammy Stept & Charles Tobias

Comes rain storm put your rubbers on your feet
Comes a snow storm you can get a little heat
Comes love nothing can be done

Comes a fire then you know just what to do
Blow a tire buy another shoe
Comes love nothing can be done

Don’t try hiding ’cause there isn’t any use
You start sliding when you’re heart turns on the juice

Comes a headache you can lose it in a day
Comes a toothache see your dentist right away
Comes love nothing can be done

(bridge)

Comes a heat wave you can hurry to the shore
Comes the summons you can hide behind the door
Comes love nothing can be done

Comes the measles you can quarantine a room
Comes a mousy you can chase it with a broom
Comes love nothing can be done

That’s all brother if you’ve ever been in love
That’s all brother you know what I’m speaking of

Comes a nightmare you can always stay awake
Comes depression you may get another break
Comes love nothing can be done

36. Come Rain Or Come Shine (1946)

Lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Music by Harold Arlen

I’m gonna love you
Like nobody’s loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain
And deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don’t ever bet me
‘Cause I’m gonna be true if you let me

You’re gonna love me
Like nobody’s loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together
Unhappy together
And won’t it be fine?
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We’re in or we’re out of the money
But I’m with you always
I’m with you rain or shine

I’m gonna love you
Like nobody’s loved you
Come rain or come shine
High as a mountain
Deep as a river
Come rain or come shine
I guess when you met me
It was just one of those things
But don’t ever bet me
‘Cause I’m gonna be true if you let me

You’re gonna love me
Like nobody’s loved me
Come rain or come shine
Happy together
Unhappy together
And won’t it be fine?
Days may be cloudy or sunny
We’re in or we’re out of the money
But I’ll love you always
I’m with you rain or shine

Rain or shine.

First appeared in the show St. Louis Woman with Rube Hill and Harold Nicholas

Cheek To Cheek (1935)

lyrics and music by Irving Berlin

Heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I’m in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn’t thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don’t enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through

To heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing
Cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn’t thrill me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don’t enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Dance with me
I want my arms about you
The charm about you
Will carry me through

To heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing
Cheek
Cheek
To cheek

From the film Top Hat with Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire

Carelessly

Norman Ellis

How carelessly
You gave me your heart
And carelessly I broke it sweetheart
I took each tender kiss you gave to me
Every kiss made you a slave to me

Then carelessly
I told you good-bye
But now at night I wake up and cry
I wish I knew a way to find the love
I threw away so carelessly

 

33.Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man (1927)

lyrics: Oscar Hammerstein II

music: Jerome Kern

Fish got to swim and birds got to fly
I got to love man till I die
Can’t help lovin’ that man of mine

Tell me he’s lazy tell me he’s slow
Tell me I’m crazy maybe I know
Can’t help lovin’ that man of mine

When he goes away
Dat’s a rainy day
And when he comes back dat day is fine
The sun will shine

He can come home as late as can be
Home without him ain’t no home to me
Can’t help lovin’ that man of mine
