[Trumpet solo: Louis Armstrong]

[Verse 1: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong]
We lived our little drama
We kissed in a field of white
And stars fell on Alabama last night (Yeah babe, oh yeah)

[Verse 2: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Both]
I can't forget the glamour, oh yes
Your eyes held a tender light, yes
And stars fell on Alabama last night, (scat)

[Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Both]
I never planned in my imagination
A situation (situation) so heavenly (heavenly)
A fairy land (yes) where no one else could enter (enter)
And in the center (yes) just you and me, dear (mmm, yes)

[Verse 3: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Both]
My heart beat like a hammer, hammer, hammer
My arms wound around you tight, scat, yes
And stars fell on Alabama (yeah) last night

[Bridge: Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald]
I never planned in my imagination (scat)
A situation (scat) so heavenly, so heavenly
A fairy land where no one else could enter (scat)
In the center (scat) just you and me, me dear, yes
[Verse 3: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Both]
My heart beat like a hammer, beat like a hammer
My arms wound around you tight (scat, yes)
And stars fell on Alabama last night
