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 »

Sweet Eloise, sing the birds in the trees
When she is near you can hear them
Singing sweet melodies
They're just for my Eloise.
(My Eloise)

Sweet Eloise is a beautiful sight
Old Mr. Moon comes around to
Look at her every night
Her smile's a warm summer breeze.
(The smile of Eloise)

And though there may be clouds in the skies
There's always sunshine deep in her eyes
In case you didn't know, roses grow hopin' some day
They'll be pressed and caressed in her bouquet

Sweet Eloise is so lovely to love
You will agree she's the only girl
That you're dreamin' of
But you'll be wastin' your time
Cause Eloise is all mine.
(She's all mine)

Sweet Eloise is so lovely to love
That you will agree she's the only girl
That you're dreamin' of
But you'll be wastin' your time
Cause Eloise is all mine.
(So don't you give her a line `cause Eloise is all mine)
