I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stairSure that’s music
Mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right nearby
That’s my favorite melody
You my angel phoning me
I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song(bridge)
I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stairSure that’s music
Mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right nearby
That’s my favorite melody
You my angel phoning me
I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song

Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stairSure that’s music

You my angel phoning me
