AN EXCELLENT COPY OF THIS 1955 JIVER FROM THE GREAT PERRY COMO ON A RARE UK HMV 78

DEFINITELY HIS BEST ROCKER (in my opinion!)

" JUKE BOX BABY " 

b/w  " THE THINGS I DIDN'T DO "

Jukebox Baby

When my jukebox baby takes the floor

'round the old jukebox in the candy store

The joint starts jumpin' till the roof comes tumblin' down

(Choo-choo-wah, choo-choo-wah, shooby-doo-wah)

Jukebox baby, you're the swingin'-est doll in town

(Jukebox baby) put a nickel in for Maybelline

(Jukebox baby) drop another one for Seventeen

Jukebox baby) whisper to your daddy-o three little love words

(Kokomo)

How ya gonna get your homework done

When you keep that jukebox on the run

You don't dig Latin like ya dig that crazy sound

(Choo-choo-wah, choo-choo-wah, shooby-doo-wah)

Jukebox baby, you're the swingin'-est doll in town

(Jukebox baby) I hear you knockin'

(Jukebox baby) Keep the coin box hoppin'

[ Perry Como Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

(Jukebox baby) Tell me sincerely

That you ain't forgettin' no Tina Marie

(Hip-hip, hop-hop, ho-ho, aww—hah!!)

Oh, jukebox baby, my jukebox baby, jukebox baby

(Jukebox baby, jukebox baby, jukebox baby)

All your lunchtime money goes down the slot

You could live on air if the music's hot

You just ain't quittin' till ya rock that clock around

(Choo-choo-wah, choo-choo-wah, shooby-doo-wah)

Jukebox baby, you're the swingin'-est doll in town

(See ya later) (Alligator)

Oh hey, ring-a-dinga what a dungaree doll I've found

Run them there now

Jukebox baby, jukebox baby

You're the wingin'-est, dingin'-est, swingin'-est doll in town
