Subject: RE: Pocket full of dreams From: katlaughing Date: 21 May 99 - 11:20 PM MusicMan, does that have anything to do with the one from the late 50's called "Catch a falling star"?

Subject: RE: Pocket full of dreams From: Sandy Paton Date: 22 May 99 - 01:20 AM Fragments only, I'm afraid, in this ancient memory. My mother used to sing it: (Can't think of the opening lines, dammit) It's my universe, Even with an empty purse,"br> 'Cause I've got a pocket full of dreams. Wouldn't take the wealth of Wall Street For (or? the one that I _______? But I calculate I'm worth my weight In goldenrod. Lucky, lucky me, I can live in luxury For I've got a pocket full of dreams. Sorry. It just ain't there, but I'll bet some clever Mudcatter can link you with a blue clicky thingy to a web site that has it. Sandy |
Subject: RE: Pocket full of dreams From: Musicman Date: 22 May 99 - 01:07 PM Hey Sandy! that's the one! I have some of those lyrics too, but only fragments, as you say.... I also need melody line or something so I can hear how it goes and make up some guitar chords for it as well (unless anybody has those!) Thanks, Musicman |
Subject: RE: Pocket full of dreams From: Sandy Paton Date: 22 May 99 - 05:00 PM Musicman: Maybe we could patch together a text, unless our good buddy, Joe Offer, or our cowgirl sweetheart, Katlaffing, can come up with a pop music song site and get us there with a blue clicky thingy. I'm not sophisticated enough to do music on this machine, and my machine isn't sophisticated enough to do it for me, so I can't send the tune bu e-pistle. However, if you want to waste a couple of bucks, I could sing my mother's version of the sucker for you via Mr. Bell's invention. If you're up for that, make it late afternoon Eastern time, so I'll be sufficiently awake to get my ship in order. Where are you? If you're not one of our OzCats, for whom the escapade would be too costly, you might dial 860-364-5661. I'm leaving Monday for Virginia, won't be back till late Friday. Away again on Saturday, gigging away again on Sunday, sleeping late on Monday. So, don't make that call until at least Tuesday of the next week! Can you wait? If not, make it tomorrow, Sunday the 23rd! Sandy |

I'VE GOT A POCKETFUL OF DREAMS
Happiness comes with success
I'm no millionaire
I wouldn't take the wealth of Wall Street
Lucky, lucky me |
Subject: RE: Pocket full of dreams From: Sandy Paton Date: 23 May 99 - 01:05 PM Well, by doggies, I was close! Even came up with "I'm no millionaire, but I'm not the type to care" this morning. I thought I heard old Bing singing it in my mind's ear, but figured I was confusing it with one of the songs he and Bob Hope sang in Road to (Somewhere) that said: Ain't got a dime to my name, What a terrible shame. Ho-hum, ho-ho-hum. I've got a hole in my shoe, And my stocking shows through. Ho-hum, ho-ho-hum. I'm just as free as a bird in a tree, Life is a wonderful whim! Look at the crank with his dough in the bank; Don't you feel sorry for him? (uh-uh) Rollin' along at a loss, Never gatherin' moss. Ho-hum, ho-ho-ho-ho-hum. These two songs ought to be in the thread Rick Fielding started awhile ago about "the same song written again (or whatever). Anyway, congratulations, "Mary who sings Irish songs!" I knew some 'Cat would find it. You're the one! Sandy (secret admirer) |
