All In Fun Lyrics


We are seen around New York
In the finest stay-up-late cafes
I am on the town with you these days
That's the way it stands
Just a fellow and a girl
We have had a little whirl
And our feet have left the ground a bit
We've played around a bit
That's the way it stands
For we are strictly good time charlies
Who like to drink and dance around
And maybe kick romance around
And that's the way it stands
All in fun
This thing is all in fun
When all is said and done
How far can it go?
Some cocktails, some orchids

A show or two
A line in a column
That links me with you
Just for laughs
You're with me night and day
And so the dopes all say
That I'm that way 'bout you
Here's the laugh
And when I tell you
This will kill you
What they say is true
Just for laughs
You're with me night and day
And so the dopes all say
That I'm that way 'bout you
Here's the laugh
And when I tell you
This will kill you
What they say is true

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Mabel Mercer (3 February 1900 – 20 April 1984) was an English-born cabaret singer who performed in the United States, Britain, and Europe with the greats in jazz and cabaret. She was a featured performer at Chez Bricktop in Paris, owned by the legendary hostess Bricktop, and performed in such clubs as Le Ruban Bleu, Tony's, the RSVP, the Carlyle, the St. Regis Hotel, and eventually her own room, the Byline Club. Among those who frequently attended Mercer's shows was Frank Sinatra, who made no secret of his emulating her phrasing and story-telling techniques.
