WHAT AM I GONNA DO ABOUT YOU?
(Jule Styne (m) Sammy Cahn (l) 1947)
as recorded by Bing Crosby
with Les Paul & his Trio
February 13th 1947 Los Angeles
What am I gonna do about you?
I didn't mind the others I knew,
But what am I gonna do about you?
I thought that love and I were all through,
Then your smile came out of the blue,
Oh, what am I gonna do about you?
My hopes were growing dimmer,
My chances slimmer
Each passing day.
I could have held out longer,
But love was stronger,
You had your way!
And now all my dreams, and I've had a few,
suddenly are all comin' through,
So what are you gonna do about me,
And what am I gonna do about you?
And now all my dreams, and I've had a few,
suddenly are all comin' through,
So what are you gonna do about me,
And what am I gonna do about you?
