Exactly Like You (05-04-30) Songtext
von Louis Armstrong

And now, another popular song that I made in April, 1930
"Jimmy Mac Hughes, Exactly Like You"
There were a lot of fellas like Tommy Dorsey and others
That became popular band leaders
Who played in the pit band of that show
And the name of the show was "International Revue"


I know why I′ve waited
I know why I've been blue, yes
Prayed each night for someone
Exactly like you, yes
Now why should we spend money
On a show or two, babe?
No one does those love scenes
Exactly like you, yes

You make me feel so grand, yes
I want to hand the world to you
You seems to understand
Each foolish little dream I′m dreaming
Oh, I'm scheming

Now I know why mother
And she taught me to be true, toodle-oo
She meant me for someone
Exactly like you, sweet mama
