I Found A Million Dollar Baby - Bing Crosby
It was composed by the late Harry Warren, whom I knew the last several years of his life, when he was a member of the Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters and often was a guest at their luncheons. Harry wrote it in 1931, I believe; and that was the year that Crosby recorded it on Brunswick and it was one of his first really big hits. I have known the lyrics by heart for over fifty years, and here they are from Bing Crosby's record: It was a lovely April shower, It was a most convenient door, I found a million dollar baby In a five and ten cent store. The rain continued for an hour I hung around for three or four Around the million dollar baby In the five and ten cent store. She was selling china And when she made those eyes, I kept buying china Until the crowd got wise. Incidentally, If you should run into a shower, Well step inside my cottage door, And meet the million dollar baby From the five and ten cent store (Bridge:) Love comes along like a popular song Anytime or anywhere at all, Rain or sunshine, Spring or fall. Say, you'll never know when it may say hello In a very unexpected place, For example, take my case. [repeat main set of words completely]
