Hello Dolly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hello Dolly, well hello Dolly,
It's so nice to have you back where you belong.
You're looking swell, Dolly, we can tell, Dolly,
You're still glowing, you're still crowing, you're
still going strong.
We feel the room swaying 'cause the band's playing
One of your old favorite songs from way back when,
Take a rap, fellows, find her an empty lap, fellows,
Dolly'll never go away, Dolly'll never go away...
It's so nice to see you back where you belong,
You're back on top, Louie, never stop, Louie,
You're still singing, you're still swinging, you're
still going strong,
You get the room swaying when you start in playing
One of your great songs, your songs from way back
when,
Blow your horn, Louie, sing up a great big storm,
Louie,
Promise you won't go away, promise you won't go away,
Promise you won't go away again.
