JOHNNY FEDORA & ALICE BLUE BONNET from 1946b Disney animation film "Make Mine Music sung by The Andrews Sisters (Allie Wrubel / Ray Gilbert) The Andrews Sisters with Guy Lombardo & his Royal Canadians recorded November 19th 1945 New York Johnny Fedora met Alice Blue Bonnet In the window of a department store. 'Twas love at first sight, And they promised one night They'd be sweethearts for evermore. Johnny would serenade Alice, Tooralay, tooralye, tooraloo. He sang of a beautiful palace, Of a beautiful hatbox for two. But Johnny Fedora lost Alice Blue Bonnet To a patron of the department store. Her beauty was sought by The girl she was bought by For twenty three ninety four. Johnny, oh Johnny, your Alice Blue Bonnet Will always be waiting for you, So don't give up hoping And don't give up dreaming, For true love will come smiling through. Johnny Fedora was lonely and stranded In the window of the department store. When lo and behold He was suddenly sold, And his heart became gay once more. Johnny sang out like a robin, Tooralay, tooralye, tooraloo, la-da-la. To strangers he'd come up a-bobbin', "I thought you were someone I knew!". He looked for her uptown and crosstown and downtown, >From the Brooklyn bridge to the Jersey shore. When it all seemed in vain, Johnny heard the refrain Of the song Alice sang of yore. Johnny, oh Johnny, your Alice Blue Bonnet Will always be waiting for you, So don't give up hoping And don't give up dreaming, For true love will come smiling through!
