Juke Box Saturday Nigh

Jukebox Saturday Night
Glenn Miller
Words by Albert Stillman, music by Paul McGrane.

As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on July 15th 1942 with Marion Hutton and the Modernaires.

Moppin? up sodapop rickeys
To our heart's delight
Dancin? to swingeroo quickies
Jukebox saturday night

Goodman and Kyser and Miller
Help to make things bright
Mixin? hot licks with vanilla
Jukebox saturday night

They put nothin? past us
Me and honey lamb
Making one Coke last us
Till it's time to scram

Money we really don't need bad,
We make out alright
Lettin? the other guy feed that
Jukebox saturday night

After sippin? a soda we got a scheme
Somebody else plays the record machine
It's so easy to say pet names
When you listen to the trumpet of Harry James...

(-Instrumental interlude la Harry James-)

We love to hear that tenor croon
Whenever the Ink Spots sing a tune...

("The Ink Spots"):
If I didn't know why the roses grow
Then I wouldn't know why the roses grow...
(Spoken) Now listen, honey child,
If I didn't know all them little things I'm supposed to know
Then I sure would be a SAD man
If I didn't know...

Money we really don't need it,
We make out alright
Lettin? the other guy feed that
Jukebox saturday night!
