’Leven thirty Saturday night
This nice little song that I have recorded now was written by bandleader Earl Burtnett and two others and was published in 1929. I first heard it in an English version by Ambrose and his Orchestra, and later I’m also digging it by Fess Williams.
For it was at the dance I was in a trance,
’Leven thirty Saturday night
In my arms I held a world of charms
’Leven thirty Saturday night
At eight, my fate, had just be-gun
It grew quite late before love had won
Can't you see, she accepted me
’Leven thirty Saturday night
