Ida Sweet as Apple Cider — текст песни (Frank Sinatra)

(note: frank never sang the intro, only the chorus, after a full musical intro by tommy dorseys band)



In the region where the roses always bloom,

Breathing out upon the air their sweet perfume,

Lives a dusky maid I long to call my own,

For, I know my love for her will never die;

When the sun am sinking in dat golden west,

Little robin red breast gone to seek their nests,

And I sneak down to dat place I love the best,

Every evening there along I sigh.



Chorus: ida! sweet as apple cider,

Sweeter than all I know,

Come out! in the silvry moonlight,

Of love well whisper, so soft and low!

Seems as tho cant live without you,

Listen, please, honey do!

Ida! I idolize yer

I love you, ida, deed I do.
