Sweet Lorraine Lyrics - Basic Basie - Count Basie

Everything is set, skies are blue, 

Can't believe it yet, but it's true, 

I'll give you just one guess, 

My sweet Lorraine said "yes" 

Waiting for the time, soon to be, 

When the bells will chime merrily, 

(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun, 

For it's in my sweeties smile, 

Just think that I'm the lucky one 

Who will lend her down the aisle 

Each night I pray 

That nobody steals her heart away, 

Just can't wait until that happy day, 

When I marry sweet Lorraine 

Everything is set, skies are blue, 

Can't believe it yet, but it's true, 

I'll give you just one guess, 

My sweet Lorraine said "yes" 

Waiting for the time, soon to be, 

When the bells will chime merrily, 

(I'm so happy,) when it's raining I don't miss the sun, 

For it's in my sweeties smile, 

Just think that I'm the lucky one 

Who will lend her down the aisle 

Each night I pray 

That nobody steals her heart away, 

Just can't wait until that happy day, 

When I marry sweet Lorraine
