The Andrews Sisters

The Andrews Sisters were a highly successful close harmony singing group of the swing and boogie-woogie eras. The group consisted of three sisters: contralto LaVerne Sophia Andrews (July 6, 1911 – May 8, 1967), soprano Maxene Angelyn Andrews (January 3, 1916 – October 21, 1995), and mezzo-soprano Patricia Marie "Patty" Andrews (born February 16, 1918). Throughout their long career, the sisters sold well over 75 million records (the last official count released by MCA Records in the mid-1970s). Their 1941 hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" can be considered an early example of rhythm and blues or jump blues. more »

I've got an invitation to a dance,
But I don't think I'll go,
I'd be sorry I know;
I'm afraid I might see
The one who should be with me
With somebody else.

I've got an invitation to a dance;
It's the town's big affair,
All our friends will be there.
They may talk when they see
The one who should be with me
With somebody else.

I don't wanna start a lot of gossip,
Out of sight is out of mind!

Maybe there is still a chance to make up;
We may wake up and find
We're leavin' happiness behind!

I've got an invitation to a dance;
I could bring someone new
But what good would it do?
It would hurt me to see
The one who should be with me
With somebody else.

I don't wanna start a lot of gossip,
Out of sight is out of mind!
(scat)
Maybe there is still a chance to make up;
We may wake up and find
We're leavin' happiness behind!

I've got an invitation to a dance;
I could bring someone new
But what good would it do?
It would hurt me to see

The one who should be with me

With somebody else.
