Music: George Shearing (1919 - ) Lyrics: George David Weiss (1921 - ) Oh, lullaby of birdland that's what I Always hear, when you sigh, Never in my wordland could there be ways to reveal In a phrase how I feel. Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love? That's the kind of magic music we make with our lips When we kiss And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you should tell me farewell and goodbye Lullaby of birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love Lullaby, lullaby, lullaby Have you ever heard two turtle doves Bill and coo when they love? That's the kind of magic music we make with our lips When we kiss And there's a weepy old willow He really knows how to cry That's how I'd cry in my pillow If you should tell me farewell and goodbye Lullaby of birdland whisper low Kiss me sweet, and we'll go Flying high in birdland, high in the sky up above All because we're in love Lullaby of Birdland - Ella Fit |

Shirley Bassey singing Pennies From Heaven on the Muppet show 1980. Lyrics: A long time ago A million years BC The best things in life Were absolutely free. But no one appreciated A sky that was always blue. And no one congratulated A moon that was always new. So it was planned that they would vanish now and them And you must pay before you get them back again. That's what storms were made for And you shouldn't be afraid for Every time it rains it rains Pennies from heaven. Don't you know each cloud contains Pennies from heaven. You'll find yor fortune falling All over town. Be sure that your umbrella is upside down. Trade them for a package of sunshine and showers. If you want the things you love You must have showers. So when you hear it thunder Don't run under a tree. There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me Shirley Bassey -PENNIES FROM H |
