On the Sunny Side of the Street/Exactly Like You by Louis Prima Lyrics
{On the Sunny Side of the Street}
Grab your coat, your tie, your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
And Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
I can hear the pitter-pat, a happy tune
[?]
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
'Cause [?]
I ain't got a cent
I feel rich as Rockefeller
And gold dust 'round my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Grab your street
Grab your coat, your tie, your hat
Your pants, your shoes, your bop-doodly-bop-a-do-a-baby
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
I can hear the [?]
The sunny side boy
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
And the monkey wrapped it's tail around the flag pole
The flag pole, the nut pole, south pole, water hole
[?]
[Instrumental]
{Exactly Like You}
I know why I've waited, I know why I've been blue
Prayed each night for someone baby, exactly like you
Why should we spend money on a little show or two
No one does a love scene exactly like you
And you make me feel so grand
I'd like to hand the world to you
You seem to understand
Each foolish little dream I'm dreamin'
Scheme that I'm scheming
I know why my mother taught me to be true
She made me for someone exactly like you
I know why my mother
I know why my mother
I know why my mother, mother, mother, mother, mother
Yeah boy!
Grab your coat, your tie, your hat
Leave your worries on the doorstep
And Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
I can hear the pitter-pat, a happy tune
[?]
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side
I used to walk in the shade
With my blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
'Cause [?]
I ain't got a cent
I feel rich as Rockefeller
And gold dust 'round my feet
On the sunny side of the street
Grab your street
Grab your coat, your tie, your hat
Your pants, your shoes, your bop-doodly-bop-a-do-a-baby
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
I can hear the [?]
The sunny side boy
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
And the monkey wrapped it's tail around the flag pole
The flag pole, the nut pole, south pole, water hole
[?]
