DORIS DAY: :Secret Love & 6 more




1. A GUY IS A GUY


(- words and music by Oscar Brand
- adapted from the naughty World War II soldiers' song "A Gob Is A Slob".
Brand cleaned up the lyrics. "A Gob Is A Slob" was based on the 1719
British song "I Went To the Alehouse (A Knave Is A Knave)"
- lyrics as recorded by Doris Day in 1951)



I walked down the street like a good girl should
He followed me down the street like I knew he would
Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
So listen and I'll tell you what this fella did to me

I walked to my house like a good girl should
He followed me to my house like I knew he would
Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
So listen while I tell you what this fella did to me

I never saw the boy before
So nothin' could be sillier
At closer range his face was strange
But his manner was familiar

So I walked up the stairs like a good girl should
He followed me up the stairs like I knew he would
Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
So listen and I'll tell you what this fella did to me

I stepped to my door like a good girl should
He stopped at my door like I knew he would
Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
So listen while I tell you what this fella did to me

He asked me for a good-night kiss
I said, "It's still good day"
I would have told him more except
His lips got in the way

So I talked to my ma like a good girl should
And Ma talked to Pa like I knew she would
And they all agreed on a married life for me
The guy is my guy wherever he may be

So I walked down the aisle like a good girl should
He followed me down the aisle like I knew he would
Because a guy is a guy wherever he may be
And now you've heard the story of what someone did to me

And that's what he did to me ....

2. Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) :

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother
What will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here's what she said to me

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart
What lies ahead
Will we have rainbows
Day after day
Here's what my sweetheart said

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

Now I have Children of my own
They ask their mother
What will I be
Will I be handsome
Will I be rich
I tell them tenderly

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be
Que Sera, Sera
[ Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be

3. I'll Never Stop Loving You :


I'll never stop loving you
Whatever else I may do
My love for you
Will live 'til time itself is through

I'll never stop wanting you
And when forever is through
My heart will beat
The way it does each time we meet

The night doesn't question the stars
That appear in the skies
So why should I question the stars
That appear in my eyes

Of this I'm more than just sure
My love will last and endure
I'll never, no
I'll never stop loving you

[Instrumental Interlude]

Of this I'm more than just sure
My love will last and endure
I'll never, no
I'll never stop loving you

4. When I Fall In Love :



When I fall in love
It will be forever
Or Ill never fall in love

In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before its begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart
It will be completely
Or Ill never give my heart

And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you...

5. Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps :


You won't admit you love me
And so how am I ever to know
You always tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

A million times I've asked you
And then I ask you over again
You only answer
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna wind up
Being parted, broken-hearted

So if you really love me say yes
But if you don't dear, confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

If you can't make your mind up
We'll never get started
And I don't wanna wind up
Being parted, broken-hearted

So if you really love me say yes
But if you don't dear, confess
And please don't tell me
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps
Perhaps - perhaps - perhaps [fade]

6. Secret Love


[- written by Sammy Fain and Paul-Francis Webster
- written for the movie "Calamity Jane"

- #1 song of January 1954
- Tommy Edwards (#28, 1954); Ray Anthony (#29, 1954);
- Billy Stewart (#29, 1966);
- Freddy Fender (#20, 1975) ]


Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

So I told a friendly star
The way that dreamers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I am so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hills
Even told the golden daffodils

At last my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore


+
{"When I first heard 'Secret Love' I almost fainted, it was so
beautiful.... When we finally got around to doing the
prerecording, Ray Heindorf, the musical director at Warner's,
said he'd get the musicians in about 12:30 so they could
rehearse. That morning I did my vocal warm up, then jumped on my
bike and rode over to Warner's (we lived in Toluca Lake at the
time, which was just minutes from the studio). When I got there,
I sang the song with the orchestra for the first time. When I'd
finished, Ray called me into the sound booth, grinning from ear
to ear, and said, 'That's it. You're never going to do it
better.' That was the first and only take we did."

- Doris Day }

7. SINGING IN THE RAIN

I am singing in the rain
just singing in the rain
what a glorious feeling
im happy again
im laughin the clouds
so dark up above
the suns in my heart
and im ready for love
let the stormy clouds chase
everyone from the place
comon with the rain
i have a smile on my face
i walk down the lane
with a happy refraim
and im singing,
just singing in the rain
im singing in the rain
just singing in the rain
what a glorious feeling
im so happy again
im laughing the clouds
so dark up above
the sun's in my heart
and im ready for love
let the stormy clouds chase
everyone from the place
comon with the rain
i have a smile on my face
i walk down the lane
with a happy refraim
and im singing,
just singing in the rain
