I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU - THAT'S WHY
Dixon / Henderson
as recorded by Lee Morse & her Blue Grass Boys
February 16th 1926
New York
Don't you know what's grieving me,
Why my friends are leaving me,
Why I sit and worry all day?
You know when you're around, I linger near,
Wrapped around your finger, dear,
That is why I'm acting this way!
If I look kind of blue
When there's someone with you,
I'm in love with you - that's why!
If I phone and I write
Every morning and night,
I'm in love with you - that's why!
All I do is sigh when I'm away from you,
Never have a good time like I used to do!
You may laugh at my ways,
But I'll still sing your praise,
I'm in love with you - that's why!
All I do is sigh when I'm away from you,
Never have a good time like I used to do!
Oh, you may laugh at my ways,
But I'll still sing your praise,
I'm in love with you - that's why!
(yodelling)
I'm in love with you - that's why!
