RIP Nellie Lutcher

[Henry]

The refrain reminds me of Rosemary (George's Aunt) Clooney's "Come On A My
House":


Come on-a my house my house, I'm gonna give you candy
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give a you
Apple a plum and apricot-a too eh
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house I'm gonna give a you
Figs and dates and grapes and cakes eh
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give you candy
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give you everything

Come on-a my house my house, I'm gonna give you Christmas tree
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give you
Marriage ring and a pomegranate too ah
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house I'm gonna give a you
Peach and pear and I love your hair ah
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house a come on
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give you Easta-egg
Come on-a my house, my house, I'm gonna give you
Everything - everything - everything

SPOKEN: Come on-a my house-a!


Hmmm...

Since it's a fairly slow day I can't resist posting the lyrics to Nellie
Letcher's best
song. A favorite of mine. Up there with the coffee song

P


Hurry on down to my house, honey,
Aint nobody home but me.
Hurry on down to my house, baby.
Oh, Im blue as I can be.
I love you. you love me.
A-hurry through the alley
So the neighbors dont see.
Hurry on down to my house, honey,
Aint nobody home but me. oooh.

Hurry on down to my house, baby,
Aint nobody home but me.
Hurry on down to my house, baby.
Im blue as I can be.

Oh, blue when the clock a-went
Tick-tock-tick.
Ooh, cmon, honey, quick, quick, quick.
Hurry on down to my house, baby,
Aint nobody home but me.

Say, hurry, hurry, a-nobodys home.
Hurry on down, baby,
Im blue as I can be.
Oh, please come down
Just as soon as you can.
If you dont come down,

You know the man is crazy about me.
Aint nobody home but me . . . ow!

Well, whats goin on with the three of yous? cmon, cmon, make it snappy.

Say, hurry on down to my house, baby,
Aint nobody home.
Haul it down, drag it down,
Any way to get it down.
Im blue as I can be.
Ashes-to-ashes. dust-to-dust.
Cmon, honey, you must, you must!
Hurry on down to my house, baby,
Aint nobody home but me.

Hurry, hurry. a-nobodys home.
Haul it down and drag it down.
You know I cant stand to be alone.
Operator, get me hillside, 409.
A-dont stop ringin

Hes gonna haul it down!
Aint nobody home but, you believe it,
Theres nobody home but me! wo!

Saw this in the morning Washington Post

Used to listen to her on the radio in the late 40s

Don't know if it was a local broadcast or national

Think she might have been singing in an LA club

"hurry on down to my house baby
ain't nobody home but me . .. "
