Ring-A-Ding-Ding

Frank Sinatra( 法蘭克辛納區 ) Ring-A-Ding-Ding歌詞
1.Ring-A-Ding-Ding

Written:Sammy Cahn/Jimmy Van Heusen
Arranger:Johnny Mandel

Life is dull
It's nothing but one big lull
Then presto you do a skull
And find that you're reeling
She sighs and you're feeling
Like a toy on a string
And your heart goes: 'Ring-a-ding ding, ring-a-ding ding,
ring-a-ding ding'

How could that funny face
That seemed to be common place
Project you right in to space
Without any warning
Don't know if its morning, night-time, winter or spring
What's the difference
Ring-a-ding ding, ring-a-ding ding, ring-a-ding ding

She takes (grabs) your hand - this captivating creature
And like its planned - you're in the phone book
Looking (Hunting) for the nearest preacher

Life is swell
You're off to that small hotel
And somewhere a village bell
Will sound in the steeple
Announcing to people
Love's the loveliest thing
And the bell goes: 'Ring-a-ding ding, ring-a-ding ding,
ring-a-ding ding'


2.Let's Fall In Love

Written:Ted Koehler/Harold Arlen
Arranger:Johnny Mandel

We might have been meant for each other
To be or not to be, let our hearts discover

I have a feeling, it's a feeling I'm concealing - I don't know
why
It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental - alibi
But I adore you, so strong for you
Why go on stalling, I am falling, love is calling - why be shy

Let's fall in love
Why shouldn't we fall in love
Our hearts are made of it, let's take a chance
Why be afraid of it

Let's close our eyes
And make our own paradise
Little we know of it, still we can try
To make a go of it

We might have been meant for each other
To be or not to be, let our hearts discover

Let's fall in love
Why shouldn't we fall in love
Now is the time for it, while we are young
Let's fall in love


3.Be Careful It's My Heart


4.A Foggy Day

Lyrics:Ira Gershwin
Music:George Gershwin
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

A foggy day, in London town
It had me low, and it had me down
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
The British Museum, had lost its charm

How long I wondered, could this thing last
But the age of miracles, it hadn't past
And suddenly, I saw you standing right there
And in foggy London town, the sun was shining everywhere


5.A Fine Romance


6.In The Still Of The Night

Lyrics:Cole Porter
Music:Cole Porter
Arranger:Neal Hefti/Billy May

In the still of the night
As I gaze out of my window
At the moon in its flight
My thoughts all stray, stray to you

In the still of the night
While the world lies in slumber
Oh the times without number
When I say to you

Do you love me
Just like I love you
Are you my life to be
That dream come true
Or will this dream of mine
Will it fade way out of sight

Just like that moon growing dim
Way out on the rim of the hill
In the still of the night


7.The Coffee Song(They've Got An Awful Lot Of Coffee In Brazil)

Lyrics:Bob Hilliard
Music:Dick Miles
Arranger:Johnny Mandel

Way down among Brazilians
Coffee beans grow by the billions
So they've got to find those extra cups to fill
They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil

You can't get cherry soda
'Cause they've got to fill that quota
And the way things are I'll bet they never will
They've got a zillion tons of coffee in Brazil

No tea or tomato juice
You'll see no potato juice
The planters down in Santos all say no no no

The politician's daughter
Was accused of drinking water
And was fined a great big fifty dollar bill
They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil

You date a girl and find out later
She smells just like a percolator
Her perfume was made right on the grill
Why they could percolate the ocean in Brazil

And when their ham and eggs need savor
Coffee ketchup gives 'em flavor
Coffee pickles way outsell the dill
Why they put coffee in the coffee in Brazil

So your lead to the local color
Serving coffee with a cruller
Dunking doesn't take a lot of skill
They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil


8.When I Take My Sugar To Tea


9.Let's Face The Music And Dance

Lyrics:Irving Berlin
Music:Irving Berlin
Arranger:Billy May

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's music and moonlight (moonlight and music) and
love and romance
Let's face the music and dance

Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill, and while we still have that
chance
Let's face the music and dance

Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune - and then...

There may be teardrops to shed
So (But) while there's music and moonlight (moonlight and music)
and love and romance
(Let's face the music and dance, dance)
(Let's face the music - let's here that music)
Let's face the music and dance


10.You'd Be So Easy To Love

Lyrics:Cole Porter
Music:Cole Porter
Arranger:Johnny Mandel

You'd be so easy to love
So easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep every home fire burning for

And we would be so grand at the game
Carefree together that it does seem a shame
That you can't see your future with me
'cause you'd be, oh, so easy to love

You'd be so easy to love
Easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep all the home fires burning for

We'd be so grand at the game
So carefree together that it does seem a shame
That you can't see your future with me
'cause you'd be, oh, so easy to love

Easy to love
Easy to love


11.You And The Night And The Music

Lyrics:Howard Dietz
Music:Arthur Schwartz
Arranger:Johnny Mandel

You and the night and the music fill me with flaming desire,
Setting my being completely on fire!
You and the night and the music thrill me but will we be one
After the night and the music are done?
Until the pale light of dawning and daylight, our hearts will be
throbbing guitars,
Morning may come without warning, and take away the stars.
If we must live for the moment, love till the moment is through!
After the night and the music die, will I have you?


12.I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm


13.Zing! Went The Strings Of My Heart

Lyrics:James F.Hanley
Music:James F.Hanley
Arranger:Johnny Mandel


Never could carry a tune, never knew where to start
You came along when everything was wrong and put a song in my
heart

Dear when you smiled at me, I heard a melody
It haunted me from the start
Something inside of me started a symphony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart

'Twas like a breath of spring, heard a robin sing
About a nest set apart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart

Your eyes made skies blue again
What else could I do again
Keep repeating through again
'I love you, love you'

I still recall the thrill, guess I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart


Your eyes made skies blue again
What else could I do again?
Keep repeating through again
'I love you, I do love you'

I still recall the thrill, I guess that I always will
I hope 'twill never depart
All nature seemed to be in perfect harmony
Zing! Went the strings of my heart


14.The Last Dance

Written:Sammy Cahn/Jimmy Van Heusen
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

It's the last dance, we've come to the last dance
They're dimming the lights down, they're hoping we'll go
It's obvious they're aware of us, the pair of us
Alone on the floor
Still I want to hold you like this forever and more

It the last song, they're playing the last song
The orchestra's yawning, they're sleepy I know
They're wondering just when will we leave, but till we leave
Keep holding me tight
Through the last dance, each beat of the last dance
And save me the first dance in your dreams tonight


15.The Second Time Around

Written:Jimmy Van Heusen/Sammy Cahn
Arranger:Nelson Riddle

Love is lovelier, the second time around
Just as wonderful, with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think perhaps that love, like youth, is wasted on the
young

Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home the second time you call
Who can say, what brought us to this miracle we've found

There are those who'd bet
Love comes but once - and yet
I'm oh so glad we met
The second time around
