STRINGIN' ALONG ON A SHOE STRING Words by Harold Adamson, music by Burton Lane, © As recorded by Henry "Red" Allen and Coleman Hawkins and their Orchestra, 1933. I'm stringin' along on a shoestring. I'm havin' a wonderful time. No wonder the world is a great place for me. I don't have to pay for the moonlight. I don't have to pay for the sunlight. The kisses I get from my baby are free. I got the birds and the flowers, blue skies above. I spend my hours just making sweet(?) love. I've got a wonderful sweetheart, Who's happy as she can be Just stringin' along on a shoestring with me.
