39. Darn That Dream (1939)

Lyrics by Edgar De Lange
Music by Jimmy Van Heusen

1957 MT 296 Complete on Verve v.9 2 6’19”

Darn that dream
I dream each night
You say you love me
And you hold me tight
But when I awake
You’re out of sight
Oh, darn that dream

Darn your lips
And darn your eyes
They lift me high
Above the moonlit sky
Then I tumble out
Of paradise
Oh, darn that dream

Darn that one track mind of mine
It can’t understand that you don’t care
Just to change the mood I’m in
I’d welcome a nice old nightmare

Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream
I never would have you
But it haunts me
And it won’t come true
Oh, darn that dream

(long bridge)

Darn that dream
I dream each night
You say you love me
And you hold me tight
But when I awake
You’re out of sight
Oh, darn that dream

Darn your lips
Darn your eyes
They lift me high
Above the moonlit sky
Then I tumble out
Of paradise
Oh, darn that dream

Darn that one track mind of mine
It can’t understand that you don’t care
But just to change the mood I’m in
I’d welcome a nice old nightmare

Darn that dream
And bless it too
Without that dream
I never would have you
But it haunts me
And it won’t come true
Oh, darn that dream

40. Day in-Day Out (1939)

lyrics by Johnny Mercer
music by Rube Bloom

rec date type # discography tk rec time
1957 MT 295 Complete on Verve v.9 1 6’47”

Day in-day out
The same old hoodoo follows me about
That same old pounding in my heart
Whenever I think of you
And darling I think of you
Day in-day out

Day out-day in
I needn’t tell you how my days begin
When I awake I awake with a tingle
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe seeing you

Come rain come shine
I meet you and to me the day is fine
Then I kiss your lips
And the pounding becomes
The ocean’s roar
A thousand drums
Can’t you see it’s love
Can there be any doubt
When there it is
Day in-day out

(very long bridge)

Day in-day out
The same old hoodoo follows me about
That same old pounding in my heart
Whenever I think of you
And darling I think of you
Day in and day out

Day out-day in
I needn’t tell you how my days begin
When I awake I awake with a tingle
One possibility in view
That possibility of maybe seeing you

Come rain come shine
I meet you and to me the day is fine
Then I kiss your lips
And the pounding becomes
The ocean’s roar
A thousand drums
Can’t you see it’s love
Can there be any doubt
When there it is
Day in-day out

42. Deep Song

George Cory & Douglass Cross

rec date type # discography tk rec time
1947 MT 192 Complete on Decca v.1 25 3’10”

Lonely grief is hounding me
Like the lonely shadow hounding me
It’s always there just out of sight
Like a frightening dream on a lightening night
Lonely wind cries out my name
Sad as haunted music in the rain
It’s born of grief and born of woe
But I hear it call and I’ve got to go

 

Where can I be headed for?
The blues crawled in my door to lick my heart once more
Love lives in a lonely land
Where there’s no helping hand to understand
Why does it bring this ache to me?
Why it don’t matter why
I only know misery

Has to be part of me
Never hope to count on love
To be a partner of that heaven up above
Never hope to understand, love is a barren land
A lonely land
A lonely land

Notes

Lyrics above was kindly revised by my friend Diarmuid O’Hanlon from Dublin, Ireland (7/2014).

Smooth road clear day
But why am I the only one
Traveling’ this way
How strange the road you love
Can be so easy
Can there be a detour ahead

Wake up slow down
Before you crash and brake your heart
Gullible clown
You fool, you’re heading
In the wrong direction
Can’t you see the detour ahead

The further you travel
The harder to unravel
The way he spins around you
Turn back while there is time
Can’t you see the danger sign
Soft shoulders surround you

Smooth road clear night
Oh lucky me that suddenly
I saw the light
I’m turning back away
From all that trouble

Smooth road, smooth road

The original lyrics compare love’s progress to a motor trip – the perfect metaphor in 1950s America (Wikipedia). I do not recommend any of the 4 versions (N/A).

Did I remember to tell you I adore you
And I am livin’ for you alone
Did I remember to say
I’m lost without you
And just how mad about you I’ve grown
You were in my arms
And that was all I knew
We were alone we two
What did I say to you
Did I remember to tell you I adore you
And pray forevermore you’ll be mine

(bridge)

You were in my arms
And that was all I knew
We were alone we two
What did I say to you
Did I remember to tell you I adore you
And pray forevermore you’ll be mine

(intro)

Do nothin’ till you hear from me
Pay no attention to what’s said
Why people tear the seams of anyone’s dream
Is over my head

Do nothin’ till you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you’ve heard
I haven’t a chance

True I’ve been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I’m untrue
When we’re apart the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothin’ till you hear it from me
And you never will

True I’ve been seen with someone new
But does that mean that I’m untrue
When we’re apart the words in my heart
Reveal what I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But don’t do nothin’ till you hear it from me

(piano only version)

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
I miss it each night and day
I know I’m not wrong
The feelings getting stronger
The longer I stay away

Miss the moss covered vines
The tall sugar pines
Where mockingbirds use to sing
And I’d like to see the lazy Mississippi
A hurry in to spring

The Mardi Gras memories
Of Creole tunes that fill the air
I dream of oleanders in June
And soon I’m wishing that I was there

Do you know what is means to miss New Orleans
When that’s where you left your heart
And there’s something more
I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans

Of Creole tunes that fill the air

And soon I’m wishing that I was there

I know I’m not wrong
The feelings getting stronger
The more I stay away

Miss the moss colored vines
The tall sugar pines
Where mockingbirds seem to sing
And I’d like to see the lazy Mississippi
A hurry in to spring

Oh, the Mardi Gras the memories
Of Creole tunes that fill the air
I dream the oleanders in spring
That’s when I’m wishing that I was there

Do you know what is means to miss New Orleans
When that’s where you left your heart
And there’s one thing more
I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans

(Billie Holiday singing)

Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
I miss it each night and day
I know I’m not wrong
The feelings getting stronger
The longer I stay away

Miss the moss covered vines
The tall sugar pines
Where mockingbirds use to sing
And I’d like to see the lazy Mississippi
A hurry in to spring

The Mardi Gras memories
Of Creole tunes that fill the air
I dream of oleanders in June
And still I’m wishing that I was there

Do you know what is means to miss New Orleans
I miss it each night and day
And there’s something more
I miss the one I care for
More than I miss New Orleans

Notes
It was first heard in the movie New Orleans, a 1947 musical drama featuring Billie Holiday as a singing maid and Louis Armstrong as a bandleader; supporting players Holiday and Armstrong perform together and portray a couple becoming romantically involved. During one song (Wikipedia).

47. Do Your Duty

Wesley ‘Sox’ Wilson

rec date type # discography tk rec time
1949 MT 204 Complete on Decca v.2 14 3’14”

If I call three times a day
Come and drive my blues away
When you come be ready to play
Do your duty

If you want to have some love
Give your baby your last buck
Don’t come quacking like a duck
Do your duty

I heard you said you didn’t love me
Numb as Mrs. Brown
I don’t believe a word they say
She’s the lyinest woman in town

When I need attention at home
I’ll call you on the phone
Come yourself
Don’t send your friend Jones
Do your duty

(short bridge)

If my radiator gets too hot
Cool it off in a lot of spots
Give me all the service you’ve got
Do your duty

If you don’t know what it’s all about
Don’t sit around my house and pout
If you do you’ll catch your Mama tipping now
Do your duty

If you make your own bed hard
That’s the way of life
I’m tired of sleeping by myself
But you too dumb to realize

I’m not trying to make you feel blue
I’m not satisfied with the way you do
I’ve got to help you find somebody too
Do your duty

Another song written by Billie, this time in cooperation with Herzog. It is said Billie wrote Don’t Explain after her husband, Jimmy Monroe, came home one night with lipstick traces on his collar. As a curiosity, note that on some versions, Billie introduces herself to the song.

Don’t worry ’bout me
I’ll get along
Forget about me
Be happy my love

Let’s say that our little show
Is over and so
The story ends
Why not call it a day
The sensible way
And still be friends

Look out for yourself
Should be the rule
Give your heart and your love
To whomever you love
Don’t be a fool

Darling why should you cling
To some fading thing that used to be
If your can forget
Don’t worry ’bout me

(bridge)

Darling why should you cling
To some fading thing that used to be
If your can forget
Don’t worry ’bout me

50. Dream Of Life

Carmen Mc Rae & L. Henderson

rec date type # discography tk rec time
1939 MT 107 Complete on Columbia v.5 12 2’43”

My life was empty when you went away
Even the blue skies above had turned gray
But now that you’ve come back
My dream of life is here to stay

Those little quarrels that tore us apart
Oh gee I can see
They were wrong from the start
But now that you’ve come back
My dream of life is here to stay

I can’t seem to see just what you see in me
I guess love is really blind
This world seems so grand now that you understand
It’s you I adore It’s you I live for

Life is sublime now that you’re here with me
Please keep it mind dear and don’t stray from me
For now that you’ve come back
My dream of life is here to stay

(bridge)

I can’t seem to see just what you see in me
I guess love is really blind
This world seem so grand now that you understand
It’s you I adore It’s you I live for

Life is sublime now that you’re here with me
Please keep it mind dear and don’t stray from me
For now that you’ve come back
My dream of life is here to stay
