Tex Beneke is whistling (whistlewhistlewhistle)... |
|
Glenn Miller: Hello there, Texas, whatcha say? |
|
Are you whistling in the dark just to scare the ghost away? |
|
Tex Beneke: I know there's something following me that I can't see |
|
Someone sure laid an awful hex on me! |
|
Glenn Miller: A hex? Ah, Tex, that's pretty far-fetched. |
|
Man, I'd say you're just a little bit tetched! |
|
Tex Beneke: You'd got a load of what I saw last night |
|
You'd pass the Yankee Clipper on its maiden flight! |
|
Last night I saw upon the stair |
|
A little man who wasn't there |
|
He wasn't there again today |
|
Oh, how I wish he'd go away... |
|
When I came home last night at three |
|
The man was waiting there for me |
|
But when I looked around the hall |
|
I couldn't see him there at all! |
|
Go away, go away, don't you come back any more! |
|
Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door... (slam!) |
|
Last night I saw upon the stair |
|
A little man who wasn't there |
|
He wasn't there again today |
|
Oh, how I wish he'd go away! |
