I DREAM OF BROWNIE WITH THE LIGHT BLUE JEANS
(Stephen Foster / Sol Meyer / Spike Jones)
Spike Jones & his City Slickers - 1946
(vocal: Carl Grayson & The Barefooted Pennsylvanians)
I dream of Brownie with the light blue jeans
She is as sweet as liquorice jelly beans
I dream of Brownie and with passion I burn
For of all the smiles I've seen there's none like her'n
When my nights are lonely and go from bad to worse
Brownie sings to me and I thrill to her verse
She makes me happy and she makes me feel merrier
Brownie is my favour-ite black haired terrier.
(To the tune of Camptown Races)
I love Brownie better than Jeannie, Jeannie
I love Brownie better than
Jeannie without the hair
I will not forget, forget the night I called
I looked for Jeannie's light brown hair
And found that she was bald
(Musical Break)
I dream of Jeannie with the (pop, whistle & cow bell)
She is so (pop) that I could almost (car horn)
I dream of Jeannie with the (pop, whistle & cow bell)
Ev'ry time I look at her I (grunt, grunt, grunt)
Ev'ry time I (gunshot) her, I could almost (car horn)
Ev'ry time I (gunshot) her, I (gil-ulp, gil-ulp, gulp)
I dream of Jeannie with the (bell, ascending whistle, Neigh)
Jeannie is my queenie, for I love her so.
