Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries |
People are queer, they’re always crowing, scrambling and rushing about |
Why don’t they stop someday, address themselves this way? |
Why are we here? |
Where are we going? |
It’s time that we found out |
We’re not here to stay; |
we’re on a short holiday |
Life is just a bowl of cherries |
Don’t take it serious; |
it’s too mysterious |
You work, you save, you worry so |
But you can’t take your dough when you go, go, go |
So keep repeating it’s the berries |
The strongest oak must fall |
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned |
So how can you lose what you’ve never owned? |
Life is just a bowl of cherries |
So live and laugh at it all |
Life is just a bowl of cherries |
Don’t take it serious; |
it’s too mysterious |
At eight each morning I have got a date |
To take my plunge 'round the Empire State |
You’ll admit it’s not the berries |
In a building that’s so tall |
There’s a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss |
Get thousands a week just for crooning like this |
Life is just a bowl of… aw, nuts! |
So live and laugh at it all! |
