Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
what if the rain drops sprinkle,
tie a little bell to your dancing shoes
and the sun will shine.
Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
what if the stars don't twinkle,
tie a little bell to your dancing shoes
and the stars will shine.
When you moan and groan,
then trouble hangs around;
he runs miles and miles
from ev'ry happy sound!
Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
what if the rain drops sprinkle,
tie a little bell to your dancing shoes
and the sun will shine.

You'll never know
what happiness you've brought me,
How many sweet and lovely things
you've taught me,
I've learned it all,
this happiness you've brought me,
just by your example, dear.
I love you so,
your tender sweet affection,
Those sunny smiles
you turn in my direction,
how could I help
be nearer to perfection,
just by your example, dear.
Tho' there are others
that I might pattern by,
my only inspiration is you.
With you to love me,
to keep me aiming high,
there's nothing in this world
I couldn't do,
Let fate be cruel,
let fortune be denied me,
what do I care
as long as you're beside me,
I'll carry on
for you'll be there to guide me,
Just by your example, dear.

So take the road to adventure,
March on! Brave Hearts!
The broad highway to adventure,
March on! Brave Hearts!
Your country needs you one and all,
and shall she call in vain,
the time has come
to quit yourselves like men!
So strike a blow to defend her,
To arms, Brave Hearts,
To shame we'll never surrender,
To arms, Brave hearts,
Gay and debonair,
will you do and dare
will you bear a hero's part?
Then take the road to adventure
Brave Hearts!

When you've got
a little springtime in your heart,
You can laugh
at all the Wintry winds that blow;
Tho' December comes your way,
for you the birds will sing,
and buttercups come peeping thro' the snow.
You'll be young,
you'll be in love your whole life thro',
just as young and more in love
than at the start
and each happy scene will be evergreen,
as the sweetest morning in June,
when you've got
a little springtime in your heart.

Near and yet so far,
so far away,
and yet so near.
Altho' we meet,
our ways lie far apart,
such love is bitter sweet,
and only ends in heartache.
Even yonder star
that shines above,
so bright and clear,
is far more near,
a million miles away
than one who will not hear,
the words my lips are saying;
Near and yet so far,
but near or far my heart belongs to you.

When I awake,
the only thing that I can take
is just a cup of tea.
I look a sight,
as tho' I'd had a hectic night
but nothing ever happens to me.
Last night I'd soup and caviar
and canteloupe,
with me, they don't agree.
So when I wake
my early morning tea I take,
I love my cup of tea.

Love is a song, but
two must sing it.
Into my heart
a kiss may bring it,
two hearts in tune
can soon begin it!
Love is a song!
So let us sing thro' life together,
two hearts that time nor tide can sever!
In a duet to last for ever!
Love is a song.

For there are too many women,
and not enough love to go round.
Too many women,
but never a man to be found.
Oh, isn't it a shame to waste
all my days and nights,
I'm longing for a chance to taste
Love's delights,
Too many sweethearts,
but never a husband for me.
Too many babies,
but what is there on my knee?
The husband hunters all give tongue,
but man has gone to ground.
For there are too many women,
and not enough men to go round.

With all my heart
I crave the right
to take you in my arms
and make you mine, and mine alone.
With all my heart
I've lov'd you since I met you
in my mind I've set you
on a golden throne.
Before your splendour
I gladly tender complete surrender,
to you, my own,
with all my heart
I'll live but to adore you,
and I implore you,
don't bid me depart.
All time defying with love undying,
I vow to cherish you
with all my heart.

So Over my shoulder goes one care,
over my shoulder go two cares,
Why should I cry?
It's blue above
I'm free at last
and I'm in love.
Over my shoulder go three cares,
over my shoulder go four cares,
ByeBye to trouble,
it's gone beyond recall,
Over my shoulder goes it all.
