María Elena lyrics - Nat King Cole
Tuyo es mi corazón, oh sol, de mí querer
Mujer de mi ilusión, mi amor te consagre
Mi vida la embellece una esperanza azul
Mi vida tiene un cielo, que le diste tú
Tuyo es mi corazón, oh sol, de mí querer
Tuyo es todo mi ser, tuyo es, mujer
Ya todo el corazón, te lo entregue
Eres mi fe, eres mí Dios, eres mi amor
Tuyo es mi corazón, oh sol, de mí querer
Tuyo es todo mi ser, tuyo es, mujer
Ya todo el corazón, te lo entregue
Eres mi fe, eres mí Dios, eres mi amor
Ay, Cosita Linda lyrics - Nat King Cole
Anoche, anoche soñé contigo
Soñé una cosa bonita
Que cosa maravillosa...
Ay cosita linda mamá
Soñaba, soñaba que me querías
Soñaba que me besabas
Y que en tus brazos dormía...
Ay cosita linda mamá
Chiquita que lindo tu cuerpecito
Bailando este meneito
Yo sé que tú me dirás...
(Ay merencumbe pa'bailar)
Come Closer To Me (Acercate Mas) lyrics - Nat King Cole
Come closer to me
So I can see
Heaven in your eyes
Come closer to me
So I can be
Close to paradise
Thrill me with your kisses
Let me learn what bliss is
Kiss me once and then
We'll kiss and kiss again
And life will be divine
Come closer, my dear
So I can hear
Music in my heart
I've waited so long
To hear the song that
Your love will start
Darling, I'll adore you
Live my life just for you
All I ask is this
Please give me one more kiss
And whisper you'll be mine
Acercate mas y mas y mas
Pero mucho mas
Y besame asi, asi, asi
Como besas tu
Pero besa pronto
Porque estou sufriendo
Kiss me once and then
We'll kiss and kiss again
And life will be divine
Come closer, my dear
So I can hear
Music in my heart
I've waited so long
To hear the song that
Your love will start
Darling, I'll adore you
Live my life just for you
All I ask is this
Please give me one more kiss
And whisper you'll be mine
Piel Canela lyrics - Nat King Cole
Que se quede el infinito sin estrellas
O que pierda el ancho mar su inmensidad
Pero el negro de tus ojos que no muera
Y el canela de tu piel se quede igual
Si perdiera el arcoíris su belleza
Y las flores su perfume y su color
No sería tan inmensa mi tristeza
Como aquella de quedarme sin tu amor
Me gustas tú, y tú, y tú
Y solamente tú y tú y tú y tú y tú
Me gustas tú y tú y tú
Y nadie más que tú
Ojos negros, piel canela
Que me llegan a desesperar
Me gustas tú, y tú, y tú
Y solamente tú y tú y tú y tú y tú
Me gustas tú y tú y tú
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Me gustas tú, y tú, y tú
Y solamente tú y tú y tú y tú y tú
Me gustas tú y tú y tú
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Si perdiera el arcoiris su belleza
Y las flores su perfume y su color
No sería tan inmensa mi tristeza
Como aquella de quedarme sin tu amor
Me gustas tú, y tú, y tú
Y solamente tú y tú y tú y tú y tú
Me gustas tú y tú y tú
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Ojos negros, piel canela
Que me llegan a desesperar
Me gustas tú, y tú, y tú
Y solamente tú y tú y tú y tú y tú
Me gustas tú y tú y tú
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Y nadie más que túuuuuu
Te Quiero Dijiste lyrics - Nat King Cole
Muñequita linda
De cabellos de oro
De dientes de perlas
Labios de rubí
Dime si me quieres
Como yo te adoro
Si de mí te acuerdas
Como yo de ti
Y a veces escucho
Un eco divino
Que envuelto en la brisa
Parece decir
Sí, te quiero mucho
Mucho, mucho, mucho
Tanto como entonces
Siempre, hasta morir
Y a veces escucho
Un eco divino
Que envuelto en la brisa
Parece decir
Sí, te quiero mucho
Mucho, mucho, mucho
Tanto como entonces
Siempre, hasta morir

Straighten Up And Fly Right lyrics - Nat King Cole
A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air,
The monkey thought that everything
was on the square.
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey
off his back,
The monkey grabbed his neck and said,
"Now listen, Jack..."
Straighten up and fly right,
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
Ain't no use in divin',
What's the use in jivin'?
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
The buzzard told the monkey,
You are chokin' me.
Release your hold and I'll set you free.
The monkey looked the buzzard right
dead in the eye and said,
Your story's so touching, but it sounds
just like a lie.
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
Ain't no use in divin'
Ain't no good in jivin'
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow - your - top.
Fly right!
Gee Baby, Ain't I Good To You lyrics - Nat King Cole
Love makes me treat you the way that I do,
Gee baby, ain't I good to you?
There's nothing in this world too good
For a girl so good and true.
Gee baby, ain't I good to you?
Bought you a fur coat for Christmas,
A diamond ring,
A big Cadillac car, and everything.
What makes me treat you the way that I do?
Gee baby, ain't I good to you?
Bought you a fur coat for Christmas,
A diamond ring,
A big Cadillac car, and everything.
What makes me treat you the way that I do?
Gee...
Baby, ain't I good... to you?
Sweet Lorraine lyrics - Nat King Cole
(originally by Rudy Vallee)
Just found joy
I'm as happy as a baby boy, baby boy
With another brand new choo-choo choy
When I met my sweet Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine.
A pair of eyes
That are brighter than the summer sky
When you see them, you'll realize
Why I love my sweet Lorraine.
Now when it's rainin',
I don't miss the sun
Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho
And to think that I'm the lucky one
That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho
Each night I pray
That no one will steal her heart away
I can't wait until that lucky day
When I marry sweet Lorraine.
Now when it's rainin'
I don't miss the sun
Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho
And to think that I'm the lucky one
That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho
Each night I pray
That no one will steal her heart away
I can't wait until that lucky day
When I marry sweet Lorraine.
It's Only A Paper Moon lyrics - Nat King Cole
(originally by Paul Whiteman)
It is only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
It is only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played
In a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played
In a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
When I Take My Sugar To Tea lyrics - Nat King Cole
I'm just a little Jackie Horner
Since I met my sugar cane
That gang of mine has been revealin'
That they're feelin' sore
I left the lamp light on the corner
For the moon in lover's lane
I'm doing things I never did before
When I take my sugar to tea
All the boys are jealous of me
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes
When I take my sugar to tea
I'm a rowdy-dowdy--that's me
She's a high-hat baby--that's she
So I never take her where the gang goes
When I take my sugar to tea
Ev'ry Sunday afternoon
We forget about our cares
Rubbing elbows at the Ritz
With those millionaires
When I take my sugar to tea
I'm as Ritzy as can be
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes
When I take my sugar to tea
The Frim Fram Sauce lyrics - Nat King Cole
I don't want French fried potatoes,
Red ripe tomatoes,
I'm never satisfied.
I want the frim fram sauce with the Ausen fay
With chafafa on the side.
I don't want pork chops and bacon,
That won't awaken
My appetite inside.
I want the frim fram sauce with the Ausen fay
With chafafa on the side.
Now a persons really got to eat
And a person should eat right.
Five will get you ten
I'm gonna feed myself right tonight.
I don't want fish cakes and rye bread,
You heard what I said.
Waiter, please serve mine fried
I want the frim fram sauce with the Ausen fay
With chafafa on the side.
Now a persons really got to eat
And a person should eat right.
Five will get you ten
I'm gonna feed myself right tonight.
I don't want fish cakes and rye bread,
You heard what I said.
Waiter, please serve mine fried
I want the frim fram sauce with the Ausen fay
With chafafa on the side.
I want the frim fram sauce with the ausen fay
with cha fafa, cha fafa, cha fafa, on the side
P-LEAZZZE!
I'm A Shy Guy lyrics - Nat King Cole
I'm just a shy guy,
My, I'm a 'fraid-to-try guy
No lie.
There's a gal that I idolize
But I just can't seem to hypnotize.
And when she pets me,
You betcha, it gets me.
And everytime I hold her hand,
I'm just too shy to say the things I plan.
Everytime she's close to me,
My heart is filled with ecstasy,
And like a dope, I let the chance slip by.
There, I should have told her then
But all I did was sit and grin,
And I ended up so mad that I could cry.
'Cause I'm a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
I'm just a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
Embraceable You lyrics - Nat King Cole
Embrace me
My sweet embraceable you
Embrace me
You, irreplaceable you
Just one look at you
My heart grows tipsy in me
You and you alone
Bring out the gypsy in me
I love all
The many charms about you
Above all
I want my arms around you
Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you
Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you
(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons lyrics - Nat King Cole
I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give you my heart
I love you and you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I'm never lonely
Whenever you are in sight
I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart
I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I've given you my heart
If You Can't Smile And Say Yes (Please Don't Cry And Say No) lyrics - Nat King Cole
Knock me a kiss, you'll never miss
When I'm ready to go.
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
Squeeze me a squoze in these fine clothes,
Mmmm...I love you so.
But if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
When I ask for a date, the answer is no.
You don't know what you're saying.
Don't you know the war's on,
Everything is rationed,
How 'bout that jive, keep me alive?
Baby, let bygones be bygones,
'Cause men are scarce as nylons.
And if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no!
Baby, let bygones be bygones,
'Cause men are scarce as nylons.
And if you can't smile and say yes,
Please don't cry and say no, no, no, baby
Please don't cry and say no.
Come To Baby, Do! lyrics - Nat King Cole
I took a choo-choo-choo-choo fast as I could take a choo-choo,
I've come a long-long-long-long way to take you in my arms.
And now it's your first move to prove that you've been true,
Come to baby, do.
I've been away-way-way-way-way beyond the blue horizon,
I hope that no-no-no-no-no one else is on your mind.
So pucker up, my sweet, and meet your Waterloo,
Come to baby, do.
Stop me from guessing,
T'ain't no time to tease.
Stop all your messin',
And put your beggin' baby at ease.
I wanna love-love-love you just the way I wanna love you,
I'm gonna try-try-try to try to make you understand.
When all is said and done, the one for me is you.
Come to baby, do.
Come to baby, do.
I've come a long, long way to kiss ya
You'll never know how much I missed ya.
Stop your teasin'
Come to baby, do.
All For You lyrics - Nat King Cole
When you raise your eyes and make believe,
All the stars come out and paint a world of blue.
There's my heart right up your sleeve
Waiting all for you.
When you smile on me, the world is mine,
And the dreams I dream, I know will all come true.
Every care becomes divine
Waiting all for you.
My heart is beating to the old refrain
When I'm alone with you.
My heart's repeating, "I'm in love again"
Can't we hold a rendez-vous?
You're the dreams I dream, the song I sing
You're the stars and moon and nearly everything.
Life would be a symphony,
Waiting all for you.
My heart is beating to the old refrain
When I'm alone with you.
My heart's repeating, "I'm in love again"
Can't we hold a rendez-vous?
You're the dreams I dream, the song I sing
You're the stars and moon and nearly everything.
Life would be a symphony,
Living all for you.
For You My Love lyrics - Nat King Cole
For you, my love, I'd do most anything,
For you, my love, I'd do most anything,
I love you baby, and I hope you feel the same!
For you, my love, I'd swim the ocean blue,
For you, my love, I'd swim the ocean blue,
There's nothing in this world that I wouldn't do for
You!
Let's go out tonight and celebrate,
I've a party plan for you that just won't wait!
For you, my love, I'd do most anything,
I love you baby, and I hope you feel the same!
You made me drink, you made me dream,
Changed my drink to milk and cream1
I said goodbye to all the mob,
I even went out and got a job!
For you, my love, I'd do most anything,
I love you baby, and I hope you feel the same!
(Get Your Kicks On) Route 66 lyrics - Nat King Cole
If you ever plan to motor west
Travel my way
Take the highway that's the best
Get your kicks on Route 66
It winds from Chicago to LA
More than two thousand miles all the way
Get your kicks on Route 66
Now you go through St. Louis
Joplin, Missouri
And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty
You'll see Amarillo
Gallup, New Mexico
Flagstaff, Arizona
Don't forget Winona
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
Won't you get hip to this timely tip
When you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
Get your kicks on Route 66
All I Want For Christmas (Is My Two Front Teeth) lyrics - Nat King Cole Trio
Do-do-do-dum
Do-do-do-dum
Do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth
My two front teeth
My two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have
My two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
It seems so long
Since I could say
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle"
Gosh, oh gee
How happy I'd be if I could only whistle
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth
My two front teeth
My two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have
My two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth
Two front teeth
Two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have
My two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
It seems so long
Since I could say
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle"
Gosh, oh gee
How happy I'd be if I could only whistle
All I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth
Two front teeth
Two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have
My two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
It seems so long
Since I could say
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle"
Gosh, oh gee
How happy I'd be if I could only whistle
So, all I want for Christmas
Is my two front teeth
Two front teeth
My two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have
My two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas (Christmas)
Buon Natale (Means Merry Christmas To You) lyrics - Nat King Cole
Buon Natale, means Merry Christmas to you
Buon Natale, to everyone
Happy New Year and lots of fun
Buon Natale, may all your wishes come true
Buon Natale in Italy
Means a Merry Christmas to you
Far away across the sea
In sunny Italy
There's a quaint little town
Not a clock has been wound
For over a century
They don't know the time or year
And no one seems to care
And this is the reason
The Christmas season
Is celebrated all year
Buon Natale, means Merry Christmas to you
Buon Natale, to everyone
Happy New Year and lots of fun
Buon Natale, may all your wishes come true
Buon Natale in Italy
Means Merry Christmas to you
China Gate lyrics - Nat King Cole
China Gate, China Gate
Many dreams, and many heart
You separate like two arms open wide
Some you welcome in and some must stay outside
Blow of rice, bitter tea
Is this all the good earth has to offer me?
Will I find peace of mind?
Does my true love wait behind the China Gate?
Will I find peace of mind?
Does my true love wait behind the China Gate?
Come In Out Of The Rain lyrics - Nat King Cole
Come in out of the rain
Brush those tears from your eyes
If I've been kind of mean to you
I apologize
Come here, where you belong
You were right, I was wrong
Sometimes we have a spat or two
What is love without a few?
Ah, come on, let a smile shine through
Come in out of the rain
Come here, where you belong
You were right, I was wrong
Sometimes we have a spat or two
What is love without a few?
Ah, come on, let a smile shine through
Come in out of the rain
Come in out of the rain
Coo-Coo-Roo-Coo-Coo, Paloma lyrics - Nat King Cole
Please, pretty little dove
Hurry to my love, tell her this for me
Since she is far away
Every day is sad, blue as it can be
I couldn't even start
Pouring out my heart to her in a letter
You pretty little bird
You can sing the words, you can tell her better
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo, paloma
Tell her that I'm oh so lonely
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo, paloma
Tell her that I love her only
Say that I love her so
Everywhere I go
All I do is yearn
Just longing for her kiss
Dreaming of the bliss
When she will return
My head is full of stars
Full of soft guitars
Full of lover's wooing
Please hurry to her there
Tell her that I care
Tell her with your cooing
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo, paloma
Tell her that I'm oh so lonely
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo, paloma
Tell her that I love her only
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo
Coo-coo-roo-coo-coo, paloma
How Deep Is The Ocean lyrics - Nat King Cole
How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
How many times a day do I think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?
How far would I travel?
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?
And if I ever lose you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
And if I ever lose you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?
Just As Much As Ever lyrics - Nat King Cole
Just as much as ever
I need you and want you to be here
Just as much as ever
I love you, and always will, my dear
Even though we two are parted
My feelings for you never drop
For loving you is something I started
And don't know how to stop
Just as much as ever
I'm hoping that you'll be mine again
Darlin', 'cause I'll never be satisfied till then
For I am still the same old me
With the same old love for you
Just as much as ever, my heart beats for you
(Just as much as ever)
(I'm hoping that you'll be mine again)
Darling, 'cause I'll never be satisfied till then
For I am still the same old me
With the same old love for you
Just as much as ever, my heart beats for you
Never Let Me Go lyrics - Nat King Cole
Never let me go
Love me much too much
If you let me go
Life will lose its touch
What would I be without you?
There's no place for me without you
Never let me go
I'd be so lost if you went away
There'd be a thousand hours in a day
Without you I know
Because of one caress my world was overturned
At the very start
All my bridges burned
By my flaming heart
You'd never leave me would you?
You couldn't hurt me could you?
Never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go
I'd be so lost if you went away
There'd be a thousand hours in a day
Without you I know
Because of one caress my world was overturned
At the very start
All my bridges burned
By my flaming heart
You'd never leave me would you?
You couldn't hurt me could you?
Never let me go
Never let me go
On The Sunny Side Of The Street lyrics - Nat King Cole
Grab your coat and your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny sunny side of the street
Can't you hear that pitter pat
Of that happy little tune in your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues on parade
I'm not afraid
Because my worries are all over
And the road's crossed over
If I'd never have a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny sunny side of the street
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues on parade
I'm not afraid
Because my worries are all over
And the road's crossed over
If I'd never have a cent
I'd be rich as Rockefeller
With gold dust at my feet
On the sunny sunny side of the street
On the sunny sunny side of the street
Red Sails In The Sunset lyrics - Nat King Cole
{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
{She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue}
Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you
Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more
{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea}
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more
{Red sails in the sunset}
Way out on the sea (ooh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Oh, carry my loved one
{Home safely to me}
[bracketed words are sung by Nat in unison with background singers]
[words in parentheses are sung by background singers only]
Ridin' On The Gravy Train lyrics - Paul Weston, Nat King Cole & Jo Stafford
I'm just walking through clover
Got no right to complain
All my worries are over
Ridin' on the gravy train
Left my troubles behind me
Left 'em back in the rain
If you want me you'll find me
Ridin' on the gravy train
Brother, I occupy a seat on the aisle
Don't need fair going there
Cause your ferry's a smile
Got a rainbow to guide me
Got a happy refrain
Lady luck is beside me
Ridin' on the gravy train
Brother, I occupy a seat on the aisle
Don't need fair going there
Cause your ferry's a smile
Got a rainbow to guide me
Got a happy refrain
Lady luck is beside me
Ridin' on the gravy train
With my baby beside me
Ridin' on the gravy train

The Little Christmas Tree lyrics - Nat King Cole
Little Christmas Tree
No one to buy you, give yourself to me
You're worth your weight in precious gold, you see
My little Christmas tree
Promise you will be
Nobody else's little Christmas tree
I'll make you sparkle, just you wait and see
My little Christmas tree
I'll put some tinsel in your hair
And you'll find that there's a strange new change
That you have never seen
I'll bring my boy a toy
He'll jump for joy
To see his bright new queen
With me you will go far
I'll show Saint Nick the tree you really are
And there'll be peace on Earth when Daddy lights your star
My little Christmas tree
With me you will go far
I'll show Saint Nick the tree you really are
And there'll be peace on Earth when Daddy lights your star
My little Christmas tree
You're big enough for three
My little Christmas tree
The Magic Window lyrics - Nat King Cole
Someday you'll be looking through a magic window
And you'll see yourself sail off with Captain Kidd
What adventures you'll enjoy
And you'll be the only boy
To discover where the treasure chest was hid
And if I remember that's what I once did
I remember looking through a magic window
And I saw myself teach Robin Hood to aim
Then what mischief I got in meeting HuckleberryFinn
And I saw it through that magic window frame
You can bet your bottom dream you'll do the same
With your nose against the glass and your elbows on the sill
You'll be a partner of Buffalo Bill
Or help solve a case with Sherlock Holmes
Or you'll get to go with Gullivereach time he roams
Grown-ups don't know where to find that magic window
But it's any window little boys look through
There's so much for you to see, so don't ever say to me
That you've got a lot of growing up to do
'Cause I wish that I were growing down to you
With your elbows on the sill and your nose against the pane
You'll toss the pumpkin at Ichabod Crane
You're one guy Paul Bunyan couldn't lick
You're the guy that whaled the daylights out of Moby Dick
Grown-ups don't know where to find that magic window
But it's any window little boys look through
There's so much for you to see, so don't ever say to me
That you've got a lot of growing up to do
'Cause I wish that I were growing down to you
The Sweet Bird Of Youth lyrics - Nat King Cole
The sweet bird of youth soon flies away
And nothing can make him stay
The sweet bird of youth soothes us his sound
To waste precious time is wrong
So come to my arms
We're young but we'll learn
That lips unkissed like moments missed
Can never return
How sad is the truth
Try though we may
The sweet bird of youth flies away
The sweet bird of youth flies away
