Thou Swell Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Lorenz Hart First performance/First release by: William Gaxton & Costance Carpenter - 1927/Broadway Nitelites - 1928 Covered by multiple other artists
Thou swell, thou witty, thou sweet, thou grand Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand? Both thine eyes are cute too, what they do to me Hear me holler, I choose a sweet lollapaloosa in thee
I'd feel so rich in a hut for two Two rooms and kitchen I'm sure would do Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand
