Lyrics Have a Little Dream on Me - Fats Waller, Billy Taylor

Have a Little Dream on Me

How’d’ya like a mansion in Manhattan
And a cosy cottage by the sea?
How’d’ya like to dress in silk and satin?
Baby, have a little dream on me
How’d you like to mingle with the smart set
And invite the Vanderbilts to tea?
Everything on which you’ve got your heart set
Baby, have a little dream on me
Paris in the Spring, Miami in the Fall
Interviews and pictures in the press
What a way to speak on twenty bucks a week
Don’t forget that Rockefeller started out on less
Everything we touch will turn to clover
In the magic land of what’s to be
But until your baby puts it over
Baby, have a little dream on me
Yes
Well, all right then
Everything we touch will turn to clover
In the magic land of what’s to be
Till your daddy puts it over, skip it
Baby, have a dream on me, yes
