George, Ira Gershwin - Meadow Serenade
текст песни

Though my voice is just a singsong
I must burst into a spring song
Hey nonny nonny piminy miminy mo
Fondest memories seem to waken
To my boyhood days I'm taken
Hey nonny nonny piminy miminy mo
In that dearest section of my recollection
Back to fields of clover I'm conveyed
In that charming locale
Nature must get focal
Listen to that meadow serenade

I hear the rustle of the trees
From the nearby thicket
Where the oriole is calling
And the bobolink is falling for his mate

I hear the sighing of the breeze
And the chirping cricket
Where the whippoorwill is wooing
And the katydid is cooing to his Kate

And I can hear a cowbell chorus
That's now being played
Hummingbirds humming for us
From deep in the shade

There's music in my heart
As my thoughts go winging
Where the spring is ever singing
That meadow serenade

In that meadow now there lodges
A garage for Buicks and Dodges
Hey nonny nonny piminy miminy mo
You had Prince and Rover, what dogs!
Now you find them there as hot dogs
Hey nonny nonny piminy miminy mo
"Get your Coca-Cola, "
"Buy a new Victrola, " through the scene the
Billboards are displayed
You can fill your car there
Even find a bar there

Give me back that meadow serenade

I hear the rustle of the trees
From the nearby thicket
Where the oriole is calling
And the bobolink is falling for his mate

I hear the sighing of the breeze
And the chirping cricket
Where the whippoorwill is wooing
And the katydid is cooing to his Kate

And I can hear a cowbell chorus
That's now being played
Hummingbirds humming for us
From deep in the shade

There's music in my heart
As my thoughts go winging
Where the spring is ever singing
That meadow serenade
There's music in my heart
As my thoughts go winging
Where the spring is ever singing
That meadow serenade
