glenn miller (operatic singer) - a basso profundo am i lyrics
[verse 1]
everyone has a secret longing
and when i grew to a man
how i wanted to be a tenor
and sing as tenors can
love songs sweet
full of sympathy
i would sing them all the while
but oh, such songs were not meant for me
i must sing the big b-ss [?]
for my voice became a b-ss
for such songs are out of place
songs of the sea, or of drink, are left for me
of love, not the slightest taste
but a tenor i would be
full of sweetest sympathy
[chorus]
but down, with my voice, in the deepest of tones
love, can’t be heard, in a chorus, of groans
now when i sing, i must praise davy jones
[verse 2]
wrought in the cradle of the deep
that sort of song i must sing
drinking, drinking, drinking
such songs do not mean a thing
but if my voice was a tenor
i’d sing way up to high c
love songs grand, i could then command
oh, how happy i’d be
[chorus]
but down, with my voice, in the deepest of tones
love, can’t be heard, in a chorus, of groans
now when i sing, i must praise davy jones
for a b-sso profundo
a b-sso profundo
a b-sso profundo
am, i
