(::mrs. walker::)
Gotta feeling '51 is gonna be a good year,
Especially if you and me see it out together.
(::frank::)
So you think that '51 is gonna be a good year.
We'll marry now and see it out together.
(::mrs. walker::)
I have no reason to be over-optimistic,
But somehow when you smile i can brave bad weather.
What about the boy?
What about the boy?
What about the boy, he saw it all!
(::frank::)
You didn't hear it, you didn't see it!
You won't say nothin' to no one,
Ever in your life.
You never heard it.
How absurd it all seems, without any proof!
(::mrs. walker::)
You didn't hear it, you didn't see it!
You won't say nothin' to no one,
Ever in your life.
You never heard it.
How absurd it all seems, without any proof!
(::both::)
You didn't hear it, you didn't see it!
You never heard it, not a word of it!
You won't say nothin' to no one,
Never tell a soul what you know is the truth!
