In the Cool Cool Cool of the Evening Lyrics

by Rosemary Clooney

Sue wants a barbeque
Sam wants to boil a ham
Grace votes for builabaise stew
Jake wants a weenie bake, stake and a layer cake
He'll get a tummy ache too
We'll rent a tent or teepee
Let the town cryer cry
And if it's RSVP
This is what I'll reply.

In the cool cool cool of the evening
Tell em' I'll be there
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Better save a chair
When the party's gettin' a glow on
And singing fills the air
In the shank of the night
When the doins' are right
You can tell em' I'll be there

(Instramental break)

In the cool cool cool of the evening
Tell em' I'll be there
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Better save a chair
When the party's gettin' a glow on
And singing fills the air
In the shank of the night
When the doins' are right
You can tell em' I'll be there

If there's room for one more
And you need me why sure
You can tell em' I'll be there

If I can climb out of bed
Put a hat on my head
You can tell em'...
I'll be there
