Judy Garland Medley - Carol Kidd

I'm always chasing rainbows

Waching clouds drifting by

My dreams are just like all my schemes

Ending in the sky

Some fellows look and find the sunshine

I always look and find the rain

Some fellows make a winning sometime

I never even make a gain believe me

I'm always chasing rainbows

Looking to find a little bluebird in vain

When all the world is a hopeless jumble

And the raindrops tumble all around

Heaven opens a magic lane

When all the clouds darken up the skyway

There's a rainbow highway to be found

Leading from your window pane

To a place behind the sun

Just a step beyond the rain

Somewhere over the rainbow way up high

There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue

And the dreams that you dare

To dream really do come true

Someday I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

Where troubles melt like lemon drops

Away above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly

Birds fly over the rainbow why then oh why can't I

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow

Why oh why can't I

With my high-starched collar and my high-topped shopes

And my hair piled high upon my head

I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley

And lost my heart instead

Wish his light brown derby and his bright green tie

He was quite the handsomest of men

I started to yen then I counted to ten then

I counted to ten again

Clang clang clang went the trolley

Ding ding ding went the bell

Zing zing zing went my heartstrings

From the moment I saw him I fell

Chug chug chug went the motor

Bump bump bump went the brake

Thump thump thump went my heartstrings

When he smiled I could feel the car shake

He tipped his hat and took a seat

He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet

He asked my name I held my breath

I couldn't speak because

He scared me half to death

Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer

Plop plop plop went the wheels

Stop stop stop went my heartstrings

As he started to go then

I started to know how it feels

When the universe reels

He tipped his hat and took a seat

He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet

He asked my name I held my breath

I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death

Buzz buzz buzz went the buzzer

Plop plop plop went the wheels

Stop stop when my heartstrings

As he started to leave and

I started to know how it feels

And as if it were planned he stay on with me

And it was grand

Just to stand with his hand holding mine

To the end of the line
