DON’T LET YOUR LOVE GO WRONG
(J.C. Johnson (m) / Arthur Schwartz & Richard A. Whiting (l) 1934)

Boswell Sisters 1934

The 3 sisters, Martha, Connee & Helvetia (Vet), were known for their very
intricate harmonies in vocal jazz. Some refer to this as 'swing' jazz.
They were affectionately known as 'The Bozzies' by their enthusiastic fans.

Don't let your eyes go googoo
Don't let your mind go gaga
Don't let yourself get hotcha
Don't let your love go wrong.

Don't let the moonlight get you
Don't let a stranger pet you
Don't let a kiss upset you
Don't let your love go wrong.

Remember who you're promised to
No matter where or when
Feel a thrill against your will
Count up to ten and be yourself again.

Don't let your nerves go haha
Don't let you heart go boomba
Don't let yourself get hotcha
Don't let your love go wrong.

Down Cuba, I met someone
I’ve been dreamin’ of
We used to spoon underneath and view the moon
We did nothing’ but talk about love.

Since I left you, I’ve been countin’ every single day
When I’m alone
I call him on the phone
Here is what I say.

Don't let your eyes go googoo
Or your mind go gaga
Ahhhh
Don't let yourself get hotcha
Over any muchacha.
Don't let your love go wrong.

Don't let the moonlight get you
Or a stranger pet you
Ahhhh
Don't let a kiss upset you
And honey I’ll betch you
You won’t let your love go wrong.

You remember your promise
Beneath each twinkling star
I’ve been missing your kisses
I want to be where you are.

Don't let your nerves go haha
And your heart go boomba
Ahhh
Don't let yourself get hotcha
Over any muchacha.
And you won’t let your love go wrong.
Ahhhh
Don’t let your love go wrong.
