les baxter - wake the town and tell the people lyrics

(music by jerry livingston and words by sammy gallop)
wake the town and tell the people
sing it to the moon above
wake the town and tell the people
tell them that i'm so in love

let's begin the celebration
let's declare a holiday
send the wedding invitations
to the neighbors right away

when i am close to you
and my heart is dancing with delight
i want the world to see
heaven's in my arms tonight

shout it from the highest steeple
ring the bells the whole night through
wake the town and tell the people
tell them i'm in love with you

[instrumental interlude]

shout it from the highest steeple
ring the bells the whole night through
wake the town and tell the people
tell them i'm in love with you
