In The Cool Of The Evening Lyrics - Dean Martin

Academy Award winning song by Hoagy Carmichael and Johnny Mercer 

Sue wants a barbecue 

Sam wants to boil ham 

Grace votes for bouillabaisse stew 

Jake wants a wienie bake, steak and a layer cake 

He'll get a tummy ache too 

We'll rent a tent or tepee 

Let the town crier cry 

And if it's RSVP 

This is what I'll reply

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

In the cool cool cool of the evening 

Tell 'em I'll be there 

In the cool cool cool of the evening 

You better save a chair 

When the party's getting a glow on 

Singing fills the air 

In the shank of the night when the doings are right 

You can tell 'em I'll be there 

Whee, said the bumblebee, let's have a jubilee 

When said the prairie hen, soon? 

Sure said the dinosaur 

Where said the grizzly bear 

Under the light of the moon 

How 'bout your brother jackass 

Everyone gaily cried 

You coming to the fracas 

Over respects he sighed

In the cool cool cool of the evening 

Tell 'em I'll be there 

In the cool cool cool of the evening 

Slickum on my hair 

When the party's getting a glow on 

Singing fills the air 

If I aint in the clink 

And there's something to drink 

You can tell 'em I'll be there 

If I can find the right sock by eleven o'clock 

You can tell 'em I'll be there 

If you need a new face or a tenor off base 

You can tell 'em I'll be there 

If I can climb out of bed, put a hat on my head 

You can tell 'em I'll be there
