Lyrics
[Intro]
Come on, Annie, let's go to the movies
Let's go see the stars!
[Verse 1]
Cowboy heroes
Cops and robbers
Glamour and strife
Bigger than life!
Sitting in the darkness
What a world to see
Let's go to the movies
Annie, wait and see
[Verse 2]
Betty Davis is probably lying
And Greta Garbo is probably crying
While Robert Taylor is locked in her dying embrace
Chico and Groucho and Chaplin and Lloyd are all super
Sweet Mickey Mouse, Shirley Temple, and dear Jackie Cooper
[Chorus]
Let's go to the movies
Let's go see the stars
[Verse 3]
Fred and Ginger spinning madly
Songs and romance, life is the dance
Sitting in the darkness
Popcorn on your knee
Give the maid the night off
Turn the kitchen light off
[Chorus]
Let's go to the movies
Annie, you and me
[Bridge]
Let's go to the movies (See the movies)
Let's go see the stars
Red lights holler
Big Depression
What do we care?
Movies are there
Only happy endings (Boy gets girl, yes)
That's our recipe
Welcome to a lovely
M-O-V-I-E
[Chorus]
Let's go to the movies (We love to go to RKO, Columbia, Universal)
Let's go see the stars (Jack Warner and Sam Goldwyn and MGM and Paramount)
[Outro]
Dreams of glory
Cast of thousands
Bigger than life
Bigger than life
Only happy endings
That's our recipe
So welcome to the movies
Wait
And
See!
