Babes in Arms movie - Johnny One Note lyrics

rate me

<br>

Johnny could only sing one note<br>

And the note he sings was this<br>

Ah!<br>

<br>

Poor Johnny one-note <br>

sang out with "gusto"<br>

And just overlorded the place<br>

Poor Johnny one-note <br>

yelled willy nilly<br>

Until he was bleu in the face<br>

For holding one note was his ace<br>

<br>

Couldn’t hear the brass<br>

Couldn’t hear the drum<br>

He was in a class<br>

By himself, by gum!<br>

<br>

Poor Johnny one-note<br>

Got in Aida<br>

Indeed a great chance to be brave<br>

He took his one note<br>

Howled like the North Wind<br>

Brought forth wind that made critics rave,<br>

While Verdi turned round in his grave!<br>

<br>

Couldn’t hear the flute<br>

Or the big trombone<br>

Ev’ry one was mute<br>

Johnny stood alone.<br>

<br>

Cats and dogs stopped yapping<br>

Lions in the zoo<br>

All were jealous of Johnny's big trill<br>

Thunder claps stopped clapping,<br>

Traffic ceased its roar,<br>

And they tell us Niag’ra stood still.<br>

He stopped the train whistles,<br>

Boat whistles, <br>

steam whistles,<br>

Cop whistles, <br>

all whistles bowed to his skill<br>

<br>

Sing Johnny One-Note,<br>

Sing out with "gusto" and<br>

Just overwhelm all the crowd<br>

Ah!<br>

So sing Johnny One-Note, out loud!!<br>

Sing Johnny One-Note<br>

Sing Johnny One-Note out loud!<br>

<br>
