Love Is On The Air Tonight 1937

Up in Maine
or on the western plain
makes no diff'rence
where you go,
Cinderella and her fella
have the parlor lights turned low,
List'ning to the radio;

Love is on the air tonight
and it's on
a hearttoheart hookup.
Love is ev'rywhere tonight
better look your coziest nook up,
Each station throughout the nation
will have a song coming through,
So, if your set works,
the major networks
will do your wooing for you,
You should never sing to her
if a song is not up your alley,
You may sound like Bing to her,
But suppose she likes Rudy Vallee,
If some crooner from
old Altoona
can tell her better than you,
Why should you care,
long as love is
on the air tonight?

Love is on the air tonight
and it's on
a hearttoheart hookup.
Love is ev'rywhere tonight
better look your coziest nook up,
Each station throughout the nation
will have a song coming through,
So, if your set works,
the major networks
will do your wooing for you,
You should never sing to her
if a song is not up your alley,
You may sound like Bing to her,
But suppose she likes Rudy Vallee,
If some crooner from
old Altoona
can tell her better than you,
Why should you care,
long as love is
on the air tonight?
