You go to my head and you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning ’round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne
You go to my head like a sip of sparkling Burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two
The thrill of the [...]

It’s wonderful
To look into your eyes
And realize you care a little bit
It’s wonderful to know that you love me

Sing Hallelujah, c’mon get happy
Get ready for the Judgment Day
The sun is shinin’ c’mon get happy
The Lord is waiting [...]

I work at the palace ballroom
But gee, that palace is cheap
When I get back to my chilly hallroom

A beautiful hostess you know
One that the palace features
At exactly a dime a throw
Ten cents a dance
That’s what they pay me
Gosh, how they weigh me down
Ten cents a [...]
