Subject: Lyr Add: WHEN IT'S LAMP LIGHTING TIME IN THE VALLE From: Louie Roy Date: 06 Dec 02 - 01:13 PM WHEN IT'S LAMP LIGHTING TIME IN THE VALLEY The info I have on this tune is as follows It was written and recorded by Curt Poulton & Herald Goodman in 1933
There's a lamp shining bright in a cabin
CHORUS: When it's lamp lighting time in the valley
In the lamp light each night I can see her
She lights up the lamp and sits waiting |
Subject: RE: music for two songs!? From: Jim Dixon Date: 07 Dec 02 - 03:16 PM The Browns also recorded a song called "The Old Village Choir" (Singer) It appears on their 8-CD set "The Three Bells". Barnes&Noble has a sound sample, from which I transcribed: "...to sing in the old village choir. In pigtails and big bows, your eyes all aglow, I held your hand as we sang. While the congregation..." "The Voice in the Old Village Choir" (by Gus Kahn and Harry Woods) was recorded by Eddy Arnold on the albums "In the Chapel" and "Sunday with Eddy Arnold & Jim Reeves". It is also on the album "Double Barrel Country: The Legends of Country Music". This page says it was recorded in 1926 by the Majestic Dance Orchestra with vocalist Harold Van Emburgh. The Frank Gullo Sheet Music Collection at Millersville University has the sheet music. They will photocopy it for a fee, if it's not under copyright, but their index dates it to 1932, not 1926, so there may be a problem with copyright. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Old Village Choir / Lamp Lighting Time From: GUEST,999 Date: 17 Sep 12 - 08:54 AM OLD VILLAGE CHOIR Guy Singer © Writer Share, PD How well I remember soft nights in September And the songs of the old village choir The church in the valley as we joined in the rally To sing in the old village choir In pigtails and big bows your eyes all aglow I held your hand as we sang While the congregation looked on in admiration As we sang in the old village choir The ring in their voices with eyes all aglow Filled with devotion on fire Oh how my heart's yearning that longing returning To sing in the old village choir Oh how my heart's yearning that longing returning To sing in the old village choir From http://www.lpdiscography.com/?page=album&album=11825 I think that version was done by The Browns. |
