Ring the Bell! By Jimmy Van Heusen & Johnny Burke. | |
From show: & movie Festival in Flanders backed by Bing Crosby. (Recordings of song: Lena Horne, Johnny Mathis ("I'll buy you a star" album)). | |
Verse: I woke up late this morning, the future had no charm, | |
I noticed my alarm clock wasn't wownd | |
The door bell and the phone were disconnected | |
And people I expected weren't around. | |
So I said to myself: “There's a reason – a song doesn't sing by itself. | |
A bell doesn't ring by itself.” | |
Song: RING THE BELL! | |
It's a glorious sound, people gather around | |
And start to cheer and the cheers start to swell, | |
Don't hide your head in a trough! | |
Just get up and “haul off” and RING THE BELL! | |
Dreams that dwell in the back of your eyes: they'll materialize | |
If you get up and get out of your shell! | |
You can't depend upon fate - or your height - or your weight | |
To RING THE BELL! | |
There's a grind stone for your nose, | |
There's a tree top for your toes! Don't stay home and decompose, | |
Just get out and get going -- where a Go-Getter goes! | |
Who can tell - if you've missed a few meals? | |
If you're down at the heels, Put on a “well-to-do” look. - You'll do well! | |
When it's a crime to get up, That's the time to get up and RING THE BELL! And it's like I always say: “Don't do anything half way” | |
There's a time for work and play. | |
Don't put off til tomorrow what you can do today! | |
When it's time to get up, That's the time to get up! | |
RING THE BELL! | |
Why it's simply absurd how much a wide awake look can compel, | |
When it's a crime to to get up, that's the time to get up, | |
When it's a crime to get up, That's the time to get up and RING THE BELL! |
