Glenn Miller - Juke Box Saturday Night lyrics

rate me

(Albert Stillman / Paul McGrane)

(vocals : Tex Beneke, Marion Hutton & The Modernaires)

TEX: Moppin‘ up sodapop rickeys

To our heart's delight

MODS: Dancin‘ to swingeroo quickies

Jukebox Saturday night

MARION: Goodman and Kyser and Miller

Help to make things bright

MODS: Mixin‘ hot licks with vanilla

Jukebox saturday night

MODS: They put nothin‘ past us

MARION: Me and honey lamb

TEX: Making one Coke last us

MODS: Till it's time to scram

TEX: Money we really don't need bad,

MARION: We make out alright

MODS: Lettin‘ the other guy feed that

Jukebox Saturday night

MODS: After sippin‘ a soda we got a scheme

Somebody else plays the record machine

It's so easy to say pet names

When you listen to the trumpet of Harry James

(-Instrumental interlude playing Ciribiribin á la Harry James-)

MARION: We love to hear that tenor croon

Whenever the Ink Spots sing a tune

("The Ink Spots"):

If I didn't know why the roses grow

Then I wouldn't know why the roses grow...

(Spoken) Now listen, honey child,

If I didn't know all them little things I'm supposed to know

Then I sure would be a sad man

If I didn't know

MODS: Money we really don't need it,

We'll make out alright

Lettin‘ the other guy feed that

Jukebox Saturday night!
