I WANT TO MEANDER IN THE MEADOW (Harry Woods / Charles Tobias) Ruth Etting - 1929 Jack Miller - 1929 The Edisongsters - 1929 Fred Rich's Paradise Club Orch. (vocal: Irving Kaufman) - 1929 Phil Spitalny's Music (vocal: The Paull Sisters) - 1929 Charles Dornberger & His Orch. - 1929 Jennifer Warnes - 1968 I heard a bird singing this morning In a great big empty lot But the song he sang just made me feel, oh, so blue What's the good of pretending That I'm happy when I'm not Guess I'm nothing but a dreamer that happiness forgot I want to meander in the meadow See the sunbeams kissing the dew I want to meander in the meadow With the birds and flowers I knew How I can remember in the meadow When my days were happy and free Up at dawn, greet the sun Sing a song till my day was done I want to meet someone in the meadow When the shadows start into fall We used to meander in the meadow It's the sweetest memory of all I know if I had a million wishes There'd be just one wish and I'd say I want to meander in the meadow Be a kid for only a day Oooo-oooh, I want to meander in the meadow With one little dog by my side I want him to find me in the meadow Every time I leave him and hide Ah, I can remember in the meadow When we found a nest full of bees Oooh, did they sting, I declare They stung us here and they stung us there How happy I'd be to see an angel In a little garden that I knew Somehow in my dreams it seems I'm near her I can hear her calling, "Yoo-hoo" Some people may think it's foolish Ah, let them think whatever they may I want to meander in the meadow Be a kid, a little kid, for only just one day (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - November 2018)
