“Lauderdale-By-The-Sea”
“I know a place where lov-ers can spoon De-cem-ber, May or June——The
hea-vens are bright, it’s a lov-ers de-light—-So lis-ten to me Mis-ter Moon—–
Trou-bles and cares mean noth-ing down there as we dance —-the hours a—way The
fish-ing is fine You can swim an-y time—–Un-der a tro-pi-cal moon——
CHORUS
LAU-DER-DALE DOWN BY——THAT SEA——That’s the place for me—–Where the
sun—–shines ev-ry day —and there I long to be——It’s there you’ll
meet your sweet—–heart aand friends of long a-go——There’s plen-ty of
fun for old and the young—–at LAU-DER-DALE BY THE SEA——”
Who knew….
