Mister Meadowlark - Original - Bing Crosby, Johnny Mercer

I’m out in the country

But I don’t know why

Cause I’m sticky a city loving guy

Just sitting there when a little bird flies my way

Hello bee

I looks at him and he’s lookin' at me

We’re both satisfying our curiosity

Who can this be?

Quick like a rabbit I gets me a?

So I ups to him and I say

Whatcha say?

«Oh Mister Meadowlark we gots a lot of serenading to do.»

Who to?

«Ooh Mister Meadowlark I’m just a city slicker & I’m counting on you.»

She’s got a country guy who whistles

My whistle is thin

(innocent)

So when I begin, that’s where you come in

Oh you’re?

your heart mister meadowlark

Now if you should cop a gander when I’m kissing my chick

Needless to remind I’m gonna have the decency to exit due but quick

Say but what if Mrs. M thinks I’m out stepping?

Fear not, I’ll make it alright

For Mr. Meadowlark meet me in the dark tonight

The scene changes, nightfall, our two characters at the?

place, the park

Spoon and spark with meadowlark

Ooh Mister Meadowlark we’re gathered here to witness this moment event

It’s a charming little park

Paid for by the city

Now my brother you’re a cinch

Cause when I send them, they’re sent

You mean you’re ready?

Suppose I hit a real good ripple

Well whistle me a whizzer

I’ll slip you a?

Now when I begin

Why that’s where I come in

Pretty now

Oh Mister Meadowlark, I guess you know that clinker put the finish oh me

Fair weather friend, eh?

Needn’t to remind I hope you know you put me in a practically impossible key

If they squawk then you got to square it

Square it

I’ll tell them you’re tight with two black birds from Boston

Yes Mister Meadowlark goodnight

Goodnight
