Harold Arlen
I Could Go On Singing (Till the Cows Come Home)
[Verse 1]
When a dove is in love, with a doll of a dove
He is out all night coo cooing
When the owl's on the prowl for a feminine fowl
He goes out all night woo wooing
[Verse 2]
Every bird and bee has its lunacy
In the way he works his dream off
But when I feel high, here's the way that I
Like to get my kind of steam off:
[Bridge]
Owls hoo hoo
Others sigh
Doves coo coo
Ah, but I...
[Pre-Chorus]
I could go on singing, till the cows come home
And the rooster starts to crow, crow, crow
When I see your eyes, I go all out
I must vocalize till you shout "Enough already!”
I could go on singing, till the moon turns pink
Anything from Faust to Ink-a-dink-a-dink
Love does funny things, when it hits you this way!
[Chorus]
I could go on singing, till the moon turns pink
Anything from Faust to Ink-a-dink-a-dink
Love does funny things, when it hits you this way!
I must keep on singing, like a lark, going strong
With my heart on the wings of a song, singing day!
[Pre-Chorus]
I could go on singing, till the cows come home
And the rooster starts to crow, crow, crow
When I see your eyes, I go all out
I must vocalize till you shout "Enough already!”
I could go on singing, till the moon turns pink
Anything from Faust to Ink-a-dink-a-dink
Love does funny things, when it hits you this way!
[Chorus]
I could go on singing, till the moon turns pink
Anything from Faust to Ink-a-dink-a-dink
Love does funny things, when it hits you this way!
I must keep on singing, like a lark, going strong
With my heart on the wings of a song, singing day!
