You’re mean to me
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee honey it seems to me
You love to see me crying
I don’t know why
I stay home each night
When you say you’ll phone
You don’t and I’m left alone
Singing the blues and sighingYou treat me coldly each day in the year
You always scold me
Whenever somebody is near, dear
It must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn’t for can’t you see
What you mean to me?

Me, myself and I
Are all in love with you
We all think you’re wonderful
We doMe, myself and I
Have just one point of view
We’re convinced
There’s no one else like youIt can’t be denied dear
You brought the sun to us
We’d be satisfied dear
If you’d belong to one of usSo if you pass me by
Three hearts will break in two
Cause me, myself and I
Are all in love with you(bridge)

Maybe You’ll Be There
167. Maybe You’ll Be There (1947)
lyrics by Sammy Gallop

Each time I see a crowd of people
Just like a fool I stop and stare
It’s really not the proper thing to do
But maybe you’ll be thereI go out walking after midnight
Along the lonely thoroughfare
It’s not the time or place to look for you
But maybe you’ll be thereYou said your arms would always hold me
You said your lips were mine alone to kiss
Now after all those things you told me
How can it end like this?Some day if all my prayers are answered
I’ll hear a footstep on the stair
With anxious heart I’ll run right to the door
And maybe you’ll be thereYou said your arms would always hold me
You said your lips were mine alone to kiss
Now after all these things you told me
How can it end like this?Some day if all my prayers are answered
I’ll hear a footstep on the stair
With anxious heart I’ll run right to the door
And maybe you’ll be there

Mandy is two
You ought to see her eyes of cornflower blue
They really look as if they actually knew
That she’s a big girl nowMandy is two
You ought to see how many things she can do
She knows her alphabets
And ties her own shoes
And no one showed her howIf you could see her majesty
With braids in her hair
Almost as though her Sunday beau
Came around and brought her an orchid to wearMummy is blue
Because her little girl is going on three
But Miss Amanda she’s as proud as can be
‘Cause she’s a big girl nowIf you could see her majesty
With braids in her hair
Almost as though her Sunday beau
Came around and brought her an orchid to wearMummy is blue
Because her little girl is going on three
But Miss Amanda she’s as proud as can be
‘Cause she’s a big girl now
