Artiste : Frank Sinatra
Titre : Me And My Shadow
Writer(s): Dave Dreyer - Al Jolson - Billy Rose

(This is the duet with Sammy Davis, Jr.)

Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall
Like the seashore clings to the sea
Like you´ll never get rid of your shadow
Frank, you´ll never get rid of me

Let all the others fight and fuss
Whatever happens, we´ve got us.

Me and my shadow
We´re closer than pages that stick in a book
We´re closer than ripples that play in a brook
Strolling down the avenue
Wherever you find him, you´ll find me, just look
Closer than a miser or the bloodhound´s to Liza

Me and my shadow
We´re closer than smog when it clings to L.A.
We´re closer than Bobby is to J.F.K.
Not a soul can bust this team in two
We stick together like glue

And when it´s sleeping time
That´s when we rise
We start to swing
Swing to the skies
Our clocks don´t chime
What a surprise
They ring-a-ding-ding!
Happy New Year!

Me and my shadow
And now to repeat what I said at the start

They´ll need a large crowbar to break us apart
We´re alone but far from blue

Before we get finished, we´ll make the town roar
We´ll make all the late spots, and then a few more
We´ll wind up at Jilly´s right after Toot´s Shore
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
(Here comes the party!)
For my shadow and me!

Say Frank?
What is it, Sam?
Do me a favor?
What do you want, now?
Would you mind taking it, just one more time?
From the top?

No! From the ending!
Wonderful!

And while we are swinging, to mention a few
We´ll drop in at Danny´s, The Little Club too
But wind up at Jilly´s, whatever we do
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
(Wow!)
For my shadow and me!

Frank?
Oh, forget it Sam.
