In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening (From the Film: Holiday Inn) - Bing Crosby/Jane Wyman

Written by：Hoagy Carmichael

In the cool cool cool of the evening

Tell 'em I'll be there

In the cool cool cool of the evening

Save your pappy a chair

When the party's getting a glow on

And singin' fills the air

In the shank of the night

When the doin's are right

Well you can tell 'em I'll be there

I like a barbecue

I like to boil a ham

And I vote for bola baste stew

What's that

I like a weenie bake steak and a layer cake

And you'll get a tummy ache too

We'll rent a tent or a teepee

Let the town crier cry

All's well

And if it's R S V P

This is what I'll reply

In the cool cool cool of the evening

Evening

Tell 'em we'll be there

If you need a pair of freeloaders

To fracture your affair

I may even give them Pagliacci

Now stand back and give him air

If one can relax and we'll have a few yaks

And you can tell them we'll be there

Oui said the bumblebee

Let's have jubilee

When said the prairie hen Soon

Sure said the Dinosaur

Where said the Grisly Bear

Under the light of the moon

How about your brother jackass

Everyone gaily cried

Are you coming to the fracas

Ain't gonna blow it

And all the 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

Stick 'em on my hair

If perchance we look a bit peeked

Remember se la guerre

If we're still on our feet

And there's something to eat

Well you can tell them we'll be there

In the cool cool cool of the evening

Tell 'em I'll be there

In the cool cool cool of the evening

Better save a chair

When the party's getting a glow on

And singin' fills the air

If there's gas in my hack

And my laundry is back

If there's room for one more

And you need me

Why sure

If you need a new face or a tenor or base

If I can climb out of bed

And put a head on my head

Well you can tell 'em we'll be there
