about

BPM 193 out of rubato intro

The not often heard verse to this great standard appears here, along with a Fats Waller quote from John Royen on piano, which is answered by a quote of Waller's Handful of Keys on the guitar solo from Healey which follows. This band was such a riot! The killer clarinet, everyone gets a chance to shine on this track. Even a skulls solo on this vintage kit.

lyrics

Three Little Words (Kalmar and Ruby)

Three words in my dictionary
I never could see.
But to my vocabulary,
I've added these three.
I'm waiting for someone
To show them to me...

Three little words
Oh what I'd give for that wonderful phrase.
To hear those Three little words
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days.
And what I feel in my heart may tell sincerely,
No other words can tell it half so clearly.
Three little words,
Eight little words,
That simply mean, "I love you"!
