In The Cool, Cool, Cool Of The Evening

Frank Sinatra

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 bouillabaisse stew. 's that? I'd 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, 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
