Swaller-Tail Coat 1934

Gonna rig myself up
In a swaller tail coat
with a jingle in my pockets
and a song in my throat
Gonna hold my head high
'cause my honey's reply
Put a million billion rainbows
in the sky.

Deeee Dum Deeee Deeee
Dum Ba, dee ba, Dee Dee Dum
Ba Dee Ba, Dee Dee Dum.

We'll go honeymoonin' in the mornin'
We'll be honey moonin' in the evenin'
Gonna count the minutes till the dawnie;
Then I'll sing loud 'cause I'll be rigged up,
In a swaller tail coat
with a jingle in my pocket
and a song in my throat
When the preacher says rise
and there's "Yes" in her eyes
Down the aisle we'll both strut
higher than the skies

Deeee Dum Deeee Deeee
Dum Ba, dee ba, Dee Dee Dum
Ba Dee Ba, Dee Dee Dum.

Gonna rig myself up
In a swaller tail coat
with a jingle in my pockets
and a song in my throat
Gonna reach way up there
pull a cloud from the sky
with my honey we'll go floating
free from care.

Deeee Dum Deeee Deeee
Dum Ba, dee ba, Dee Dee Dum
Ba Dee Ba, Dee Dee Dum.

We'll go honeymoonin' in the mornin'
We'll be honey moonin' in the evenin'
Gonna count the minutes till the dawnie;
Then I'll sing loud 'cause I'll be rigged up,
In a swaller tail coat
with a jingle in my pocket
and a song in my throat
Gonna hold my head high!
'Cause my honey's reply
Put a million billion rain bows
in the sky.

Deeee Dum Deeee Deeee
Dum Ba, dee ba, Dee Dee Dum
Ba Dee Ba, Dee Dee Dum.
