OKAY FOR SOUND
Michael Carr (m) Jimmy Kennedy (l)

as rec by Jack Cooper w Ambrose & his Orch  Aug 11th 1936


Okay for sound;
When the sounds you like to hear
Come a-trickling through your ear,
Now don't say,
"That sounds okay!",
Say, "Okay for sound!".

Okay for sound;
When you hear the baker's zizz
And you hear that soda fizz,
Now don't say,
"That sounds okay!",
Say, "Okay for sound!".

In the poppin' of a champagne cork,
In the ringin' of the weddin' bells,
In the crackle of a five pound note,
Each little sound is sweet as music!

Okay for sound;
When you hear the favourite wins,
When the doctor says it's twins,
Now don't say,
"That sounds okay!",
Say, "Okay for sound!".
