“I know all the songs that the cowboys know'bout the big corral where the doggies go,'Cause I learned them all on the radio.Yippie yi yo kayah”Johnny Mercer Song I'm an old Cowhand
“Skylark,Have you seen a valley green with SpringWhere my heart can go a-journeying,Over the shadows in the rainTo a blossom covered lane?And in your lonely flight,Haven't you heard the music in the night,Wonderful music,Faint as a will-o-the-wisp,Crazy as a loon,Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon.”Johnny Mercer Song "Skylark" (1942)
“There's a long goodbye,and it happens every day,when a passerbyinvites your eyeto come away.Even as you smile a quick helloyou let her go,you let the moment fly…Too late you turn your head,you know you've saidthe Long Goodbye.”Johnny Mercer Song "The Long Goodbye" (1973)
