Connee Boswell

Constance Foore "Connee" Boswell (December 3, 1907, Kansas City, Missouri – October 11, 1976, New York) was an American female vocalist born in Kansas City but raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. With her sisters, Martha and Helvetia "Vet" Boswell, she performed in the 1930s as The Boswell Sisters and became a highly influential singing group during this period via recordings and radio. Connee herself is widely considered one of the greatest jazz female vocalists and was a major influence on Ella Fitzgerald who said, "My mother brought home one of her records, and I fell in love with it....I tried so hard to sound just like her." more »

I should sing of sweethearts,
Bluebirds and blue skies above,
But how can I sing of sweethearts,
I've got no-one to love!

I've got the words, I've got the tune,
I've even been rehearsin' under the moon!
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
I'm hummin' to myself!

I got the place, I got the time,
I've got a lot of words that rhyme,
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
So I'm hummin' to myself!

(humming)
I guess it just had to be!
(humming)
Won't someone listen to me?

I've got the words, I've got the tune,
I'd like to croon it under the moon!
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
So I'm hummin' to myself!

I've got the words, I've got the tune,
I've been rehearsin' under the moon!
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
So I'm hummin' to myself!

I got the place, I've got the time,
I've got a lot of love words that rhyme,
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
So I'm hummin' to myself!

(humming)
I guess it just had to be!
(humming)
Listen and learn, won't someone listen to me?

I've got the words, I've got the tune,
I'd like to croon it under the moon!
But I got nobody to hear my song, 
So I'm hummin' to myself!

(hummimg)
Humming to myself!
