As recorded by HELEN FORREST, 28th September 1945:

Somethin's cooking that rates an ovation
Note that I'm in a state of elation
Call the press in, I've got a quotation
Tell the nation my guy's come back

No more blues for me
No, no more, no more
Just good news for me
Just good news in store

So roll the car out, we gotta get movin'
Hang a star out, my guy's approvin'
When we are out we really get groovin'
Life's improvin', my guy's come back

Tell that preacher man
Today is the day
Got my feature man
And we're on our way
Hallelujah! My guy's come back

(Orchestral Interlude)

Tell that preacher man
Today is the day
Got my feature man
And we're on our way
Hallelujah! My guy's come back
