george gershwin - love is sweeping the country lyrics
(verse)
[sam]
why are people g-y
all the night and day
feeling as they never felt before?
[emily]
what is the thing
that makes them sing?
[sam]
rich man, poor man, thief
doctor, lawyer, chief
feel a feeling that they can’t ignore
[sam and emily]
it plays a part
in every heart
and every heart is shouting “encore!”
(chorus)
[sam]
love is sweeping the country
[emily]
waves are hugging the sh0r-
[sam and emily]
all the s-xes
from maine to texas
have never felt such love before
[sam]
see them billing and cooing
like the birdies above
[emily]
each girl and boy alike
sharing joy alike
feels that p-ssion’ll
soon be national
[sam and emily]
love is sweeping the country
there never was so much love!
(bridge)
[sam]
spring is in the air
each mortal loves his neighbor
[emily]
who’s that loving pair?
it’s capital and labor!
[sam]
florida and cal-
ifornia get together
in a festival
of oranges and weather
[emily]
boston upper zones
are changing social habits
and i hear the cohns
are taking up the cabots
[sam]
taxi men take dimes
and never curse the traffic
while the new york times
adores the new york graphic
(chorus)
[all]
love is sweeping the country
waves are hugging the sh0r-
all the s-xes
from maine to texas
have never felt such love before
see them billing and cooing
like the birdies above
each girl and boy alike
sharing joy alike
feels that p-ssion’ll
soon be national
love is sweeping the country
there never was so much love!
