Cab Calloway - Lordy lyrics
[Cab Calloway - Lordy lyrics]
The night is friendly the stars are winkin'
My sleepy-headed baby's eyes are blinkin'
I hold him in my arms and sit here thinking
Lordy! What a sweet world
The night is friendly with voices croonin'
And gals and fellows in the shadows spoonin'
And clouds that open up to let the moon in
Lordy! What a sweet world
Now, I ain't callin' this life perfect
But I am thanking my maker above
Because for everything that you don't like
There's a million little things
That you love, ooh
A bell is chimin' to toll the hour
The sky is dripping light
On every livin' flower
It like to drown us in a silver shower
Lordy! What a sweet world
I'm so happy happy!
Happy to be livin' yes sir!
Livin' on a friendly night
On a friendly night in a friendly world
In a friendly world my heart is happy
Thanks to the Lord!
