Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra

They're Either Too Young or Too OldTommy DorseyWords by Frank Loesser and music by Arthur Schwartz.Introduced by Bette Davis in the 1945 film "Thank Your Lucky Stars."Her interpretation was in an amusing manner with many lyrics added to theoriginal. Nominated for an Academy Award in 1943.You marched away and left this townAs empty as can be.I can't sit under the apple treeWith anyone else but me.For there is no secret loverThat the draft board didn't discover.They're either too young or too oldThey're either too grey or too grassy green.The pickings are poor and the crop is lean.What's good is in the army.What's left will never harm me.I'm either their first breath of spring.Or I'm their last little fling.I must confess to one romance,I[m sure you will allow.He tries to serenade me,But his voice is changing now.I'm finding it easy to stay good as gold.They're either too young or too old.I'll never ever fail ya, when you are in AustraliaAnd flying over Egypt, your heart will never by gypped.And when you get to India, I'll still be what I've been to ya,I've looked the field over, and lo and behold!They're either too young or too old.From: "Montcomags" <Montcomags@mclinc.org>
