Peggy Lee Lyrics
Mr Wonderful Lyrics
THE OLD MASTER PAINTER
This song *was* done by no fewer than six artists in 1950. They charted thusly: Richard Hayes (#2); Dick Haymes (#4); Peggy Lee and Mel Torme (#9); Phil Harris (#10); Snooky Lanson (#12); and Frank Sinatra (#13) [info from Ronald Hontz]
That old master painter from the faraway hills painted the violets and the daff-o-dills He put the purple in the twilight haze then did a rainbow for the rainy days Dreamed up the murals on the blue summer skies painted the devil in my darlin's eyes Captured the dreamer with a thousand thrills The old master painter from the faraway hills
Then came his masterpiece and when he was through He smiled down from heaven and he gave me you What a beautiful job on that wonderful day That old master painter from the hills far away
(repeat) Dreamed up etc.
