Sarah Vaughan - I Had A Ball Lyrics

Sarah Vaughan Lyrics

"I Had A Ball"

Love was hiding around the corner
This lonely mourner heard the call
Then love found me and put his arms around me
So beat the drums, sound the brass
Oh, what a groove, oh, what a gas
Here I come, let me past
Oh, wall-to-wall, cottage small
Enchanted Bliss-ville, in old new Kiss-ville
Greenest, grandest, greatest state of 'em all
If it lasts forever I'll love it
If it's just a lifetime, what of it
One good lifetime is long enough for singing
Listen love, I had a ball

Love was hiding around the corner
This lonely mourner heard the call
Then love found me and put his arms around me
So beat the drums, sound the brass
Oh, what a groove, what a gas
Here I come, let me past
Oh, wall-to-wall, cottage small
Enchanted Bliss-ville, in old new Kiss-ville
Greenest, grandest, greatest state of 'em all
If it lasts forever I'll love it
If it's just a lifetime, what of it
One good lifetime is long enough for singing
Listen love, listen love
Listen love, I had a ball

I had a ball
