Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Bernie Hanighen
Performer(s): Benny Goodman
and various other artists



I was talkin' to the whippoorwill
He says you got a corny trill
Bob White! Whatcha gonna swing tonight?
I was talkin' to the mocking bird
He says you are the worst he's heard
Bob White! Whatcha gonna swing tonight?

Even the owl-tells me you're foul
Singin' those lullaby notes
Don't be a bring down 
If you can swing down
Gimme those high notes

There's a lotta talk about you, Bob
and they're sayin' you're "off the cob"
Fake it, Mister B
Take it, follow me, Bob white
We're gonna break it up tonight
