A String Of Pearls
Composer(s): Eddie DeLange - Jerry Gray
Performer(s): Glenn Miller & His Orch.



Baby, here's a five and dime
Baby, now's about the time
For a string of pearls à la Woolworth

Ev'ry pearl's a star above
Wrapped in dreams, and filled with love 
That old string of pearls à la Woolworth

'Til that happy day in Spring
When you buy the wedding ring
Please, a string of pearls à la Woolworth

Baby you made quite a start
Found the way right to my heart
With a string of pearls à la Woolworth

Wait til the stars peek-a-boo
I've got something just for you 
It's a string of pearls à la Woolworth

I found a love so sublime
Right in that old five and dime
With a string of pearls à la Woolworth
