As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
January 15th 1940 with Marion Hutton.
Words by Ned Washington, music by Leigh Harline.
(From the movie „Pinocchio“)
When you get in trouble
And you don’t know right from wrong
Give a little whistle,
Give a little whistle
When you meet temptation
And the urge is very strong
Give a little whistle,
Give a little whistle
Not just just a little squeak
Pucker up and blow
And if your whistle’s weak
Yell, „Jiminy Cricket!“
Take the straight and narrow path
And if you start to slide
Give a little whistle,
Give a little whistle
And always let your conscience be your guide!
Give Me Five Minutes More
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra led by Tex Beneke; vocals: Tex Beneke. (recording date unknown, ca. 1946). Music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Sammy Cahn. The song was used in two movies: "Sweetheart of Sigma Chi" and "Earl Carroll Sketchbook" (both 1946).
Give me five minutes more,
Only five minutes more,
Let me stay, let me stay, in your arms.
Here am I begging for
Only five minutes more,
Only five minutes more of your charms.
All week long I dream about our Saturday date,
Don't you know that Sunday morning
You can sleep late?
Give me five minutes more,
Only five minutes more,
Let me stay, let me stay, in your arms.
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
February 6th 1939 with Marion Hutton.
Words by Johnny Mercer, music by Walter Donaldson.
Gotta get some shut-eye
Give the world the go-by
Got an awful lot of dreamin‘ to do...
Gotta get some shut-eye
Where the kisses flow by
Got an awful lot of dreams to come true
Gonna let that sandman sprinkle me with stars
Only hope that old lamp lighter lets me hold my
baby tighter
So I‘m going bye-bye
Catch myself some shut-eye
Got an awful lot of dreaming to do!
Goodbye, Little Darling, Goodbye
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
September 3rd 1940 with Ray Eberle.
Written by Johnny Marvin and Gene Autry.
Goodbye, little darling, we’re parting
Our love has only been a lie
You found someone new
There’s nothing left to do
Goodbye, little darling, goodbye
Goodbye, little darling, I’m leaving
Kiss me one tender last goodbye
I found someone new
I’m only in your way
Goodbye, little darling, goodbye...
Guess I’ll Go Back Home (This Summer)
As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on
June 2nd 1939 with Tex Beneke.
Written by Willard Robinson and Ray Mayer.
Guess I‘ll go back home this summer
Should have gone there long ago
I wonder who I’ll meet
When I walk up Main Street
Who‘ll yell the first „Hello!“?
Guess I’ll go back home this summer
Mum will cry when I walk in
She’ll brush away a tear
As Dad says, „Look who’s here!
We’re glad you’re home again!“
After we’ve talked of everything
Then I’ll get a restless spell
I‘ll walk by the house
Where she used to live
I hope she married well...
Guess I‘ll go back home this summer
Leave this daily grind behind
There’s nothing wrong I’m sure
That going home won’t cure
I’ll find my peace of mind!
