GEORGE M. COHAN POTPOURI
From the film "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (1942)
(Arranged from several songs made famous by George M. Cohan)
Frances Langford (Film Soundtrack) - 1942
In a kingom all our own
With little cupid on the throne
With a prince and princess on my knee
You'll be as happy as can be
In a love nest, cozy and warm
Like a dove rest down on a farm
And if all day long they bring
Flowers all dripping with dew
And they join in the chorus of
Nelly Kelly, I love you
He is the man who owns Broadway
That's what the daily papers say
Oh, where could you find another
I'd like to be shown
Another like Molly Malone
But I love the name, Billy
My dad's was the same, Billy
(Instrumental)
