Love Is Sweeping the Country Lyrics by George Dvorsky, New York Choral Artists

Gershwin: Of Thee I Sing / Let ’Em Eat Cake

0

[JENKINS]
Why are people gay
All the night and day
Feeling as they never felt before?
[BENSON]
What is the thing
That makes them sing?
[JENKINS]
Rich man, poor man, thief
Doctor, lawyer, chief
[BENSON]
Feel a feeling that they can't ignore
[JENKINS & BENSON]
It plays a part
In every heart
And every heart is shouting "Encore!"
[JENKINS]
Love is sweeping the country
[BENSON]
Waves are hugging the shore
[JENKINS & BENSON]
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never known such love before
[JENKINS]
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
[BENSON]
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
[JENKINS & BENSON]
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
[ENSEMBLE]
Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never felt such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
[JENKINS]
Spring is in the air
Each mortal loves his neighbor
[BENSON]
Who's that loving pair?
That's Capital and Labor
[JENKINS]
Chevrolet and Ford
Have felt this cosmic urging
[BENSON]
They with one accord
Have kissed and now are merging
[JENKINS]
Florida and Cal-
Ifornia get together
In a festival
Of oranges and weather
[BENSON]
Boston upper zones
Are changing all their habits
And I hear the Cohns
Are taking up the Cabots
[JENKINS]
Taxi men take dimes
And never curse the traffic
While the New York Times
Adores the New York Graphic
[ENSEMBLE]
Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never felt such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
