SINGER: Bing Crosby
SONG:I Found A Million Dollar Baby
It was composed by the late harry warren, whom i knew the last several years of his life, when he was a member of the pacific pioneer broadcasters and often was a guest at their luncheons. harry wrote it in 1931, i believe; and that was the year that crosby recorded it on brunswick and it was one of his first really big hits. i have known the lyrics by heart for over fifty years, and here they are from bing crosby's record: It was a lovely april shower, it was a most convenient door, i found a million dollar baby in a five and ten cent store. the rain continued for an hour i hung around for three or four around the million dollar baby in the five and ten cent store. She was selling china and when she made those eyes, i kept buying china until the crowd got wise. Incidentally, if you should run into a shower, well step inside my cottage door, and meet the million dollar baby from the five and ten cent store (bridge:) love comes along like a popular song anytime or anywhere at all, rain or sunshine, spring or fall. say, you'll never know when it may say hello in a very unexpected place, for example, take my case. [repeat main set of words completely]
