Letra de Will You Still Be Mine (Live At The Sahara, Las Vegas, NV / May 13-16, 1966)
I'm so tired, I don't think I can do more than another 77 songs That, you know, my friend Jerry Lewis, the Aristotle of the Bottle Once said, that behind every woman, there's a beautiful bandI don't think that's exactly the way Mr. Lewis said it Anyway, let's have a salute to Beauty For Mr. Billy Basil and all of the gentlemen And one lady of our orchestral I'd like to have you meet My swinging drummer boy, Mr. Bobby Grosso, RobertI'm just back from a completely unsuccessful stay, in Lake Tahoe My conductor and arranger, Mr. Joe Mizzou. Joey? Joey went to Lake Tahoe folks, to fight the war on poverty And he came back slightly woundedHe doesn't like this story, but I'll tell it anyway We recently did a tour of the Orient, from Japan And every night, I would introduce Joe, to the audience like tonight This went on for three weeks, and every night The audience would begin laughing hysterically Well, finally, somebody told me That Joe's last name, in Japanese means lousyWhen lovers make no rendezvous To stroll along Fifth Avenue When this familiar world is through Then will you still be mine?When outdoor barbecues are out And Frank Sinatra's gettting stout When Hialeah needs a tout Then will you still be mine?When moonlight of the Hudson's not romantic And spring no longer turns a young men's fancy When girls go back to wearing skirts And they ignore those married flirts Because they can rent a guy from Hertz Then will you still be mine?When the Pacific is a lake And Betty Crocker hates to bake When Perry Combo, stays awake Then will you still be mine?When holding hands is an out-of-date sensation And lovers carry on by automation When servos don't ride on the crest And Bella Fonte hides his chest When Carol Baker's overdressed Then will you still be mine?And when mosquitoes do not bite And Donald Rickles is polite When Doris Day turns into night Will you still, then will you still, be mine?Thank you so very, very much. Thank you You are just wonderful. Thank you Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen You know, years ago, when vaudeville died out All the old-time performers and actors Used to hang around outside the Palace Theater in New York City Just hoping and praying that maybe someday vaudeville would come backWell, nowadays it seems that all the old-time songwriters Are hanging around outside all the big music publishing companies in New York Just hoping and praying that maybe someday music will come back
