[Bing Crosby:]
Dinah, is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina?
If there is and you know her,
Show her to me
Dinah, got those dixie eyes blazin'
How I'd love to sit and gaze in
To the eyes of Dinah Lee
Every night why do I
Shake with fright?
Cause my Dinah might
Change her mind about me.
Dinah, Should you wander to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee.
[Mills Brothers:]
Dinah, is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina?
If there is and you know her, you know her
Show her to me
Dinah, got those dixie eyes blazin'
How I'd love to sit and gaze in
To the eyes of Dinah Lee
My Dinah, every night, why should I
Shake with fright
Because my Dinah might change her mind about me
Dinah, Should you wander to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee
[Bing Crosby:]
Every night why do I
Shake with fright?
Cause my Dinah might
Change her mind about me.

Wander to China,

Listen, and you know her
I would like to have you show her to me.
Dinah
Got those Dixie eyes blazin'
How I love to sit and gazin'
To the eyes of Dinah Lee.
Oh, Dinah
Should you wander to China
I would get me an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee.
