Lyrics The Ragtime Sisters - The Andrews Sisters Medley

HE WAS A FAMOUS TRUMPET MAN FROM OUT CHICAGO WAY
HE HAD A BOOGIE STYLE THAT NO ONE ELSE COULD PLAY
HE WAS THE TOP MAN AT HIS CRAFT
BUT THEN HIS NUMBER CAME UP AND HE WAS GONE WITH THE DRAFT
HE'S IN THE ARMY NOW, A-BLOWIN' REVEILLE
HE'S THE BOOGIE WOOGIE BUGLE BOY OF COMPANY B
A-TOOT, A-TOOT, A-TOOT-DIDDELYADA...

HAI, HAI, HAI!
HAVE YOU EVER SING IT IN THE TROPICS?
WELL THAT THRILLED THE FOOL?
WITH THE GAUCHA COOL?
OF THE SOUTH AMERICAN WAY, HEY!

HAI, HAI, HAI!
COULD YOU HAVE EVER KISSED IN THE MOON LIGHT
IF YOU NEVER KISSED
WHO KNOWS WHAT YOU'VE MISSED
IN THE SOUTH AMERICAN WAY

BEI MIR BIST DU SCHON, PLEASE LET ME EXPLAIN
BEI MIR BIST DU SCHON MEANS YOU'RE GRAND
BEI MIR BIST DU SCHON, AGAIN I'LL EXPLAIN
IT MEANS YOU'RE THE FAIREST IN THE LAND

I COULD SAY "BELLA, BELLA", EVEN SAY "WUNDERBAR"
EACH LANGUAGE ONLY HELPS ME TELL YOU HOW GRAND YOU ARE
I'VE TRIED TO EXPLAIN, BEI MIR BIST DU SCHON
SO KISS ME AND SAY YOU UNDERSTAND

WHO'S THE LOVELY DADDY WITH THE BEAUTIFUL EYES
WHAT A PAIR OF LIPS, I'D LIKE TO TRY THEM FOR SIZE
I'LL JUST TELL HIM, "BABY, WON'T YOU SWING IT WITH ME"
HOPE HE TELLS ME MAYBE, WHAT A WING IT WILL BE
SO, I SAID POLITELY "DARLIN' MAY I INTRUDE"
HE SAID
"DON'T KEEP ME WAITIN' WHEN I'M IN THE MOOD"

IN THE MOOD
IN THE MOOD
IN THE MOOD
IT DIDN'T TAKE ME LONG TO SAY "I'M IN THE MOOD NOW"

IF YOU EVER GO DOWN TRINIDAD
THEY MAKE YOU FEEL SO VERY GLAD
CALYPSO SING AND MAKE UP RHYME
GUARANTEE YOU ONE REAL GOOD FINE TIME

DRINKIN' RUM AND COCA-COLA
GO DOWN POINT KOOMAHNAH
BOTH MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
WORKIN' FOR THE YANKEE DOLLAR

OH, TICO-TICO, TICK!
OH, TICO-TICO, TOCK!
THIS TICO-TICO, HE'S THE CUCKOO IN MY CLOCK.
AND WHEN HE SAYS "CUCKOO,"
HE MEANS IT'S TIME TO WOO,
IT'S TICO TIME FOR ALL THE LOVERS ON THE BLOCK.

I'VE GOT A HEAVY DATE,
A TETE A TETE AT EIGHT,
SO SPEAK, OH, TICO, TELL ME IF IT'S GETTING LATE?
IF I'M ON TIME, CUCKOO,
BUT, IF I'M LATE, WOO-WOO!
THE ONE MY HEART IS GONE TO MAY NOT WANT TO WAIT!
