All My Life/F.D.R. Jones - Ella Fitzgerald
All my life I've been waiting for you My wonderful one I've begun Living all my life All my love Has been waiting for you My life is sublime Now that I'm Living all my love You seem so lovely, so far above me I'm almost afraid to look But I adore you, I pledge before ou A heart that's an open book All my life Hold me close to your heart But all else above Hold my love Darling, just hold my love I hear tell there's a stranger in the Jones household (yes siree, yes siree) That's what I'm told I hear tell there's a new arrival six days old (yes siree, yes siree) Worth his weight in gold Come right in And meet the son Christening's done Time to have some fun (yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) Yes siree, yes siree It's a big holiday everywhere For the Jones family has a brand new heir He's the joy heaven sent And they proudly present Mister Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones When he grows up he never will stray With a name like the one that he's got today As he walks down the street folks will say "Pleased to meet, Mister Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones" What a smile and how he shows it He'll keep happy all day long What a name, I bet he knows it With that handle how can he go wrong? And the folks in the town all agree He'll be famous, as famous as he can be How can he be a dud or a stick in the mud When he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones? (yes siree, yes siree, yes siree) Cause he's Franklin D. Roosevelt Jones.
