Love Is Sweeping the Country
Why are people gay
All the night and day
Feeling as they never felt before?
What is the thing
That makes them sing?
Rich man, poor man, thief
Doctor lawyer, chief
Feel a feeling that they can't ignore
It plays a part
In ev'ry heart
And ev'ry hearts is shouting encore
Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never known such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never known such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
Spring is in the air
Each mortal loves his neighbor
Who's that loving pair?
That's capital and labors
Chevrolet and Ford
Have felt this cosmic urging
They with one accord
Have kissed and now are merging
Florida and Cal
lifornia get together
In a festival
Of oranges and weather
Boston's upper zones
Are changing all their habits
And I hear the Cohns
Are taking up the Cabots
Taximen take dimes
And never curse the traffic
While the New York Times
Adores the New York Graphic
Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore
All the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never known such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike
Sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll
Soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love
It's overpowering
Hearts are flowering
Sure that passion'll
Soon be national
Spring is in the air
Each mortal loves his neighbor
Who's that loving pair?
That's Capital and Labors
Florida and Cal
lifornia get together
In a festival
Of oranges and weather
Boston's upper zones
Are changing social habits
And I hear the Cohns
Are taking up the Cabots
Cities are above
The quarrels that were hapless
Look who's making love
St.Paul and Minneap'lis
