Get out those old records
Those old phonograph records
The ones we used to play so long ago
What if they sound scratchy
The tunes really were catchy
And specially those that said, "I love you so"
I used to beg you over and over
Just to set the wedding day
To get you courtable, I'd bring my portable
And melt your heart away
With all those old records
Those old phonograph records
The ones we used to play so long ago
(Instrumental Break)
(Get out those old records)
All the ones about Moon
(Those old phonograph records)
And the ones about June
(The ones we used to play so long ago)
Kitten On The Keys and Lola, on the old wind-up Victrola
(What if they sound scratchy)
Barney Google was great
(The tunes really were catchy)
All the songs about Kate
(And specially those that said, "I love you so")
Jada Jada, Boola Boola,Yaka Hula Hickey Dula
(I used to beg you over and over)
Honey, Dardanella nd Sonny
(Just to set the wedding day)
Meet me on the back porch songs, torch songs
(To get you courtable, I'd bring my portable)
And melt your heart away
(With all those old records)
They were wonderful then
(Those old phonograph records)
Play them over again
The ones we used to play so long ago
The ones we used to play so long ago
