Canadian Capers - Doris Day

I heard you call for an all star band

It's something new for the music stand

It's on the way but before we start

A cutting capers around your heart

You're gonna cheer when you hear this band

There's never been a better crew

And when you hear the drummer

Lawdy how the joint'll hum

A cutting capers just for you

You'll never pick about or pick a quarrel

With Mister Krupa or with Frankie Carle

You'll never dig a list of bigger names

A cutting capers with Harry James

With Benny Goodman and his clarinet

And Tommy Dorsey's in it too

Alvino Rey will star

A walking talking steel guitar

A cutting capers just for you

Listen to that tenor saxophone

Never heard it played with such a tone

And when you get that liquorish stick

Out in the woodshed son

Why it's papa Benny Goodman

And he's showing you quick

How the proper liquorish sticking done

Listen to that fiddle player slap slap slap

Boy he plays it he really lays it

In your lap lap lap

Say I'll bet before they're through

You'll be cuting capers too

Cutting capers because I'm out with you

Nothing else that I'm about to do

My heart begins to flutter like a dove

I even stutter

Guess it's love

I'm cutting capers so you'll notice me

When we're together can't you see

I'm only blowing off

A talking big a showing off

A cutting capers because it's true

Dee dah dee dah ooh ooh ooh

Baby I'm in love

Baby I'm in love

Baby I'm in love with

Baby I'm in love with

Baby I'm in love with you
