I've Got A Pocketful Of Dreams |
| I’VE GOT A POCKETFUL OF DREAMS |
| Bing Crosby |
| — words by John Burke, music by James V. Monaco |
| — Johnny Burke wrote this song around an expression he overheard Bing using. |
| Bing recorded the song May 23, 1938, with John Scott Trotter’s Orchestra, |
| And before summer’s end it was nestled in the No. 1 position on the pop |
| Music charts. |
| The song remained in the top position for four weeks, and |
| Stayed on the charts for 17. «Pocketful of Dreams"was written for the |
| Paramount movie «Sing You Sinners"starring Bing Crosby, Fred MacMurray, |
| Ellen Drew and Donald O’Connor. |
| Happiness comes with success |
| And that I guess is true |
| But success is more or less |
| A point of view |
| I’m no millionaire |
| But I’m not the type to care |
| 'Cause I’ve got a pocketful of dreams |
| It’s my universe |
| Even with an empty purse |
| 'Cause I’ve got a pocketful of dreams |
| I wouldn’t take the wealth of Wall Street |
| For a road where nature trods |
