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.
