Frank Sinatra - Me & My Shadow Lyrics
Writer(s): dave dreyer - al jolson - billy rose(this is the duet with sammy davis, jr.)Like the wallpaper sticks to the wallLike the seashore clings to the seaLike youll never get rid of your shadowFrank, youll never get rid of meLet all the others fight and fussWhatever happens, weve got us.Me and my shadowWere closer than pages that stick in a bookWere closer than ripples that play in a brookStrolling down the avenueWherever you find him, youll find me, just lookCloser than a miser or the bloodhounds ? ? ? ? ?Me and my shadowWere closer than smog when it clings to l.a.Were closer than bobby is to j.f.k.Not a soul can bust this team in twoWe stick together like glueAnd when its sleeping timeThats when we riseWe start to swingSwing to the skiesOur clocks dont chimeWhat a surpriseThey ring-a-ding-ding!Happy new year!Me and my shadowAnd now to repeat what I said at the startTheyll need a large crowbar to break us apartWere alone but far from blueBefore we get finished, well make the town roarWell make all the late spots, and then a few moreWell wind up at jillys right after toots shoreLife is gonna be we-wow-whee!(here comes the party!)For my shadow and me!Say frank?What is it, sam?Do me a favor?What do you want, now?Would you mind taking it, just one more time?From the top?No! from the ending!Wonderful!And while we are swinging, to mention a fewWell drop in at dannys, the little club tooBut wind up at jillys, whatever we doLife is gonna be we-wow-whee!(wow!)For my shadow and me!Frank?Oh, forget it sam.
