Of course, uh, Decca wasn't about to bring in a lot of musicians
Technicians and tie up a studio just for one side, so, uh, we cut
A companion piece, nothing deathless, but maybe the best side
After all. I believe it was Matty Matlock's arrangement and his band
ย
A-here's a happy tune
You'll love to croon
They call it Sam's song
It's catchy as can be
The melody
They call it Sam's song
Nothin' on your mind
And then you find
You're hummin' Sam's song
Why it makes you grin
Gets under your skin
As only a song can do
The people that you meet
Out on the street
All whistlin' Sam's song
Everyone you see
Will soon agree
That it's a grand song
So forget your troubles
And wear a smile
You'll find you'll never go wrong
If you learn to croon
This happy tune
They call it Sam's song
And now another treatment of this classic
American theme brought to you by Mr. Gary Crosby
ย
A-here's a happy tune
That'll bring you a smile all the while when you croon it
You're really in style
And the title is Sam's song
It's catchy as can be
With a sly little beat and the melody's sweet
Keeps you tappin' your feet
And the title is Sam's song
Nothin' on your mind
But the news of the day and the bills you must pay
Keep your hair turnin' gray
But you're still hummin' Sam's song
(Are you all right? How's your brace?)
Why it makes you grin
Gets under your skin
As only a song can do
The people that you meet
"Hello, Joe, what you know?"
And remind me to mow
Tell 'em business is slow
But I'm whistlin' Sam's song
Everyone you see
Has a story to tell or a gimmick to sell
But agree that it's swell
And it's really a grand song
So forget your troubles
And wear a smile
You'll find you'll never go wrong
If you learn to croon
Like a lark in the park who is making his mark
Serenadin' the dark
With a chorus of Sam's song
If you learn to croon
The happy tune
They call it Sam's song
