On The Sunny Side Of The Street - Ted Lewis

Sung by Richman in «Lew Leslie’s International Revue»

Sung in the 1951 film «On the Sunny Side Of the Street"by Frankie Laine

Played by Teddy Wilson in the 1956 film «The Benny Goodman Story»

Grab your coat and get your hat

Leave your worries on the doorstep

Life can be so sweet

On the sunny side of the street

Can’t you hear the pitter-pat?

And that happy tune is your step

Life can be complete

On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade

But I’m not afraid because this rover crossed over!
