THERE'S A LITTLE PICTURE PLAYHOUSE IN MY HEART
(Joe Burke / Edgar Leslie)


Freddy Martin & His Orch. (vocal: Terry Shand) - 1935
Russ Morgan & His Orch. (vocal: Chick Bullock) - 1935
Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians (vocal: Carmen Lombardo) - 1935



There’s a little picture playhouse in my heart
And the four-star feature is a wonderful creature called you

There's a story where you play the leading part
And the plot uncovers what a couple of lovers go through

All the close-ups are terrific and your acting is divine
There are moments when I lose you, but in the last act you are mine

There’s a little picture playhouse in my heart
And the four-star feature is a wonderful creature called you
