SOMETHING HAD TO HAPPEN
(Jerome Kern / Otto Harbach 1933)

as recorded by
Paul Whiteman & his Orchestra
1933


Something's gotta happen,
So let us take a sensible point of view,
Gotta do the things we have got to do,
Things I'm hot to do!

Don't let's be caught napping,
Or it was fate that happened to pick on me,
And then maybe happened to pick on you!

Something's gotta happen,
So let us take a sensible point of view,
And lets do the things we have got to do,
Things I'm hot to do!

Don't let's be caught napping,
Or it was fate that happened to pick on me,
And then maybe happened to pick on you!
