作曲:Johnny Mercer/M. Phillippe Gerard

It isn by chance I happen to be

a boulevardier the toast of Paree

For over the noise the talk and the smoke

I good for a laugh a drink or a joke

I walk in a room a party of all come sit

over here somebody will call

A drink for monsieur a drink for us all

but how many times I sat and recall

Are the apple trees blossoms

in the breeze that we walk among

Lying in the hay games we used to

play while the rounds were sung

Only yesterday when the world was young

Wherever I go they mention my name

and that in itself is some sort of fame

Come by for a drink we having a game wherever

I go I glad that I came

The talk is quite gay the company fine

There laughter and lights and glamour and wine

And beautiful girls and summer been mine

but often my eyes see a different shine

Are the apple trees sunlit memories

where the hammock swung

On our backs sweet lie looking at the sky till

the stars were strung

Only last July when the world was young
