VOM VIM VEEDLE
Scherman / Jackson
as rec by The Nat "King" Cole Trio Oct 11th 1942
Songs of every nation
Are filled with some creation
of a lyrical sensation,
I'll agree!
Rules and regulations
Are lost in syncopation,
And here's the newest rhyme,
So they tell me!
Sing sing, tra-la-la-la, la-la,
Sing sing your troubles away!
Sing sing, you're drivin' me gaga
With the vom vim veedle and a bardle-doo-ay!
Clap clap, come on and be cheerful,
Clap clap, come on and be gay,
Clap clap, and whistle that earful
To a vom vim veedle and a bardle-doo-ay!
It's not ragtime,
A little ride in drag time,
It's got swing time,
So la-de-doh with the Dixie rhythm!
Mm-mm, tr-la-la-la, la-la,
Mm-mm your troubles away,
Mm-mm, you're drivin' me crazy
With the vom vim veedle and a bardle-doo-ay!
It's got ragtime,
A little ride in drag time,
It's got swing time,
So la-de-doh with the Dixie rhythm!
Mm-mm, tr-la-la-la, la-la,
Mm-mm your troubles away,
Mm-mm, you're drivin' me crazy
With the vom vim veedle and a bardle-doo-ay!
A vom vim veedle and a bardle-doo-ay!
