Bringing In A Brand New Year.

At the stroke of midnight,
On that great holiday,
Gonna have a ball,

And that ain’t all,
Gonna chase my blues away.


I’ll be bringin’ in a brand new year,
Bringin’ in a brand new year,
Gonna have a dance,
Take a chance at romance,
While bringin’ in a brand new year
.

Gonna be a big parade,
Got my resolution made,

Listen, dear, won’t you meet me here,
While bringin’ in a brand new year.


Gonna ride a bubble,
Way up above the stars,
And while I twirl,
Above the world,
Gonna take a trip to Mars.

I’ll be bringin’ in a brand new year,
Bringin’ in a brand new year,
Listen, dear, won’t you meet me here,
While bringin’ in a brand new year.

Sailin’ down a rainbow,
I’ll play with Lady Boone,*
If she raises a sigh,
Or winks her eye,
I won’t be back ’til June.

I’ll be bringin’ in a brand new year,
Bringin’ in a brand new year,
Listen, dear, won’t you meet me here,
While bringin’ in a brand new year
.
Oh listen, dear, won’t you meet me here,
While bringin’ in a brand new year
.

END.

[* Boone: From an old French nickname ‘bon’ meaning ‘good’– hence ‘Lady Good’.]
