Oh Gee! Oh Joy! 1928 'Rosalie'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 01 Feb 2005

[Bill:] Yea, bo, but isn't love great!
Gee whiz!
[Rosalie:] Heigh ho!
I'm willing to state, it is!
[Both:] Don't know who the chap was
who first began it,
but it's the only thing
on this planet.

Oh gee! Oh joy!
The birds are singing.
Because why?
Because I am in love.
Oh gee! Oh joy!
The bells are ringing.
Because why?
Because I am in love!
[Rosalie:] And all the while
I seem in a dream;
I never was so happy!
[Bill:] Folks complain
I'm insane because I act so sappy.
[Both:] Oh gee! Oh joy!
The birds are singing.
Because why?
Because I am in love!

Oh gee! Oh joy!
The birds are singing.
Because why?
Because I am in love.
Oh gee! Oh joy!
The bells are ringing.
Because why?
Because I am in love!
[Rosalie:] And all the while
I seem in a dream;
I never was so happy!
[Bill:] Folks complain
I'm insane because I act so sappy.
[Both:] Oh gee! Oh joy!
The birds are singing.
Because why?
Because I am in love!
