Love Somebody
Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
I love somebody but I won't say who
Handsome, say, he's six feet tall
And his picture's on my wall
Love to be his baby doll
If he kissed me I [Buddy joins in] wouldn't mind at all
I love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody but I won't say who
Don't know why she acts so shy,
She oughta know I wouldn't dream
Of even hurtin' a fly
Hope she doesn't pass me by
'cause if she did I'd die, I know I'd die
I love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody but I won't say who
He's big and strong
Would'ja like to feel my muscle?
Bold and gay
I never once lost a tussle
At the moment he's not very far away
Why don'tcha say who, say already?
I'd want to marry him today
But you don't say who
That I cannot do
Happen to be me?
Possibility
Won'tcha tell me who ya love?
Love somebody
Tell me true
Yes, I do
Yes, you do
Love somebody
I do, too
And I do
Maybe me
Love somebody
I hope it's me
Love somebody but I won't say who
(At this point Doris sang, "say and Buddy sang tell".
C'mon confess
Why don'tcha try and guess?
Do tell.
Let's tell.
You promise not to breathe a word?
Doris, don't be absurd
Strictly entre-nous?
Oui, oui!! We two
Well
Confidentially
Between you and me
Confidentially
I love somebody
I've got news for you
Love somebody
I feel that way, too
Love somebody
Glad it's true
That somebody that I love is you
Love Somebody - Bing Crosby
Bing Crosby's 'Love Somebody' stands as a quintessential example of his mastery in the romantic ballad genre, characterized by his signature warm, intimate vocal delivery. Recorded during the mid-20th century, the track exemplifies the acoustic and orchestral arrangements typical of Crosby's solo work, where he often stripped back the instrumentation to highlight the emotional nuance of the melody. As a staple of his discography, the song reflects the era's popular standards, focusing on themes of enduring affection and personal connection. Crosby's ability to convey deep sentiment through his voice made such recordings enduring favorites, cementing his status as a leading figure in American music history.
