CAROUSEL IN THE PARK
(Music: Sigmund Romberg / Lyrics: Dorothy Fields)
Deanna Durbin 1948
>From the Broadway Show "Up In Central Park" (1946)
Maureen Cannon (Broadway Production) - 1946
Deanna Durbin & Dick Haymes (Film Soundtrack) - 1948
HAYMES:
The stately old trees
Waltz around in the breeze
Near the small carousel in the park
DURBIN:
The children and nurses
Quite empty their purses
HAYMES: Ride to the music
DURBIN: And sack all the verses (Sic)
DURBIN:
It's simply enchanting
To see grandma panting
Sedately atop a white horse
BOTH: But children and grandma go home when it's dark
HAYMES: And then every lover is free to discover
BOTH:
The small carousel in the park
In the park
In the park
