Elmer's Tune



Elmer's Tune
music by Elmer Albrecht & Dick Jurgens
lyric by Sammy Gallop

Why are the stars always winkin' and blinkin' above?
What makes a fella start thinkin' of fallin' in love?
It's not the season, the reason, it's plain as the moon,
It's just Elmer's tune.

What makes a lady of eighty go out on the loose?
Why does a gander meander in search of a goose?
What puts the kick in a chicken, the magic in June?
It's just Elmer's tune.

Listen! Listen! There's a lot you're liable to be missin'.
Sing it! Swing it any old way and any old time...

The hurdy-gurdy's, the birdies, the cop on the beat,
The candy maker, the baker, the man on the street,
The city charmer, the farmer, the man in the moon,
All sing Elmer's tune...
