Subject: Lyr Add: I'M JUST WILD ABOUT HARRY (Sissle, Blake) From: Brack& Date: 29 Jul 98 - 04:04 AM I'M JUST WILD ABOUT HARRY (Noble Sissle and Eubie Blake) There's just one fellow for me in this world Harry's his name, that's what I claim Why for every fellow there must be a girl I've found my mate, by kindness of fate Refrain I'm just wild about Harry And Harry's wild about me The heavenly blisses of his kisses Fill me with ecstasy He's sweet just like chocolate candy And just like honey from the bee Oh I'm just wild about Harry And he's just wild about, cannot do without He's just wild about me There are some fellows that like all the girls I mean the vamps, with cruel lamps But my Harry says I'm the girl of all girls I'm his ideal, how happy I feel Repeat refrain Regards Mick Bracken |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I'm Just Wild about Harry (Sissle, Blake) From: keberoxu Date: 29 Jul 21 - 11:13 PM Well, these lyrics are, on this date, all over the Internet and you get lots of hits when you use the search engine. Nobody explains about the cruel lamps, however, and what you get a lot of is: "O cruel lamps of London . . . " which is another animal. |
