Doris Day - A Chocolate Sundae On A Saturday Night Lyrics






A chocolate sundae on a Saturday night
What a way to make an evenin' end right
The moo-oon was fine, the dancin' divine
Let's head for the drug store at Maple and Vine

Couples swayin' to a nickel machine
There's a corner where we'll never be seen
It's lovely to share that lover's delight
A chocolate sundae on a Saturday night

Now you can get most any flavor that you choose
There's vanilla, that'll thrill ya, down to your shoes
There's pistachio, and lemon pie
They've got a special sundae with a cherry on top

Lover's Lane, it just won't do
For real sweet romance lead me to

A chocolate sundae on a Saturday night
What a way to make an evenin' end right
The moo-oon was fine, the dancin' divine
Let's head for the drug store at Maple and Vine

Couples swayin' to a nickel machine
There's a corner where we'll never be seen
It's lovely to share that lover's delight
A chocolate sundae on a Saturday ni-ight

    hi i from 2019

    What happened to drugstores that had soda bars? Why did they disappear?

    t.... j....

    Soda fountain drinks eventually lost their stigma and simply became known as "soft drinks". Due to the mass production of canned soft drinks and other like beverages, a rapid decline of the soda fountain began in the 1970's. Today, old-fashioned soda fountains are often hard-to-find and exist for many because of the nostalgic feel & memories of past decades.

    Haha yamyam

  8. V.... D....

    YUMMMMM

  9. H.... ....

    Deliciously delightful!

  10. D.... ....

    @et7waage1 Me too .... wish I had lived then ... =)

  11. D.... ....

    @asv822 Oh yes... I definitely do wish I could go back in time ! If it was possible .. I'd already be gone !! =)
    Happy you enjoyed !!

  12. D.... ....

    @pendragonshaw I get on a kick of her 40's music, and thats all I want ot listen to. ... I should put more on. Have you got No Moon At All ... I really love that one. I do have that one among my uploads. Thanks... really happy you're enjoying Doris !

  13. a.... ....

    @Dayniac4324 I watched the first and second season. I get tired of movies today too. You can give a 1940s movie any day. I also love classic movies too. I saw a clip of the movie Kitty (1945) with Paulette Goddard that had one of Victor Young's most beautiful scores. Unfortunately, the clip was taken out of YouTube within a week of me seeing it. That's the kind of movie I like.

  14. D.... ....

    @astralagosto We just watched the first season. Yes... I get very tired of movies today. Of course my son thinks I'm nuts ! He can get my husband to watch some of these movies with him ... but its really hard for him to get me to watch. Give me a 1940's movie any day. But I've loved classic movies since I was a little kid.

  15. a.... ....

    @Dayniac4324 The Bachelor is nice. It's a fun show. It's great you watch a lot of TCM and PBS. I agree with you that you have better things to do than watch people kill, chase in cars, or curse each other in what is considered a movie today.

  16. D.... ....

    @astralagosto I have to admit...I've never watched one reality show. Oops -take that back - our son had us watching the first year of the bachelor. But thats the only one. We watch a lot of TCM and PBS. I really have better things to do with my time than watch people kill - chase in cars - or curse each other for two hours in what is considered a movie today !!

  17. a.... ....

    @Dayniac4324 I get tired of our society too. I don't like what is considered entertainment - reality shows, music with violent lyrics, and violent movies. That's why this society is so bad nowadays.

  18. D.... ....

    @astralagosto Me too.... have to agree with you there. I get tired of our society ... what is deemed acceptable behavior and entertainment in today's world. Really - it's very sad. Where are the morals ??

  19. a.... ....

    @Dayniac4324 It was a different time and it was nice. They did respect each other in every day life. I like that it was simpler too. I like that life was slower too. Awful things happen but in those days, there was a control of it so those things wouldn't happen often. That's what I miss.

  20. D.... ....

    @astralagosto It certainly was a different time. I think awful things happened .. they always do. But - I think you're right in that people were different. They did seem to have more respect for their fellow man in every day life. It certainly was a simpler time. I was born in the 50's and life was so much slower and simpler then.

  21. a.... ....

    Hi Dayniac,

    This video is beautiful. All those images with Doris' song makes it perfect. I wish times were like that now. The world was safer, people had respect for each other, and were kind to one another.

  22. D.... ....

    @Westcoastjazzer Wish we still had Saturday nights like that !!

  23. W.... ....

    Makes me wish it was Staturday night! Fun Tune!

  24. D.... ....

    Thank you ... thats nice of you ... happy you enjoyed !

  25. V.... B....

    Excellent job as usual!

  26. D.... ....

    I'm with you there... love her voice and she's definitely a beautiful lady .. inside and out !

  27. D.... ....

    Actually I own the Bear Family sets - they have the information for each song. They're great cd sets. Are you going to post your concert ? Let me know if you do !

  28. i.... ....

    Wow, where did you find all these musician info? I know this song was not released on any 10" LP. It was on a recent compilation CD. Anyhow, thank you for this info! I just did a nice lead sheet for this so we can do it at a concert. Very cool tune and Doris rips it up :-)

  29. D.... ....

    She was no longer with Les at this time. She's under contract with Columbia by this time. This was recorded on June 11, 1947 at the Vine St. Playhouse - Vine St. Hollywood. Frank Comstock leader & arranger. David Klein contractor. Tony Rizzi guitar. George Callender bass. Jack Mills drums. Geoffrey Clarkson piano. George Kast, Erno Neufeld,Nicholas Pisani, Olcott Vail - violin. Paul Robyn viola. Eleanor Slatkin cello. Jack Dumont, Gordon Green, Ted Nash - sax. Uan Rasey Trumpet

  30. i.... ....

    Written in 1947 by Fred Wise, Hal David, Al Frisch. Not sure the big band, as she worked with many on recordings. I'm guessing Les Brown, to play it safe :-)

  31. D.... ....

    Thanks DY -- glad you enoyed !!

  32. D.... ....

    According to Peter - who knows all about her music - she has recorded around 600 songs ! That's amazing to me.
    And as far as my pictures go - I've been collecting them for many years. Every time our computer crashes I get VERY upset ! ( usually our son's fault !! ) I've started putting them on discs - I'm afraid I'll lose them ! lol Believe it or not - every time I look on ebay I find new ones !

  33. D.... ....

    This is the 3rd year I've taken the day off.
    I'm kind of disappointed. On the program she requested some songs from the Love Album - I made a couple of video's and yt won't allow them ! Darn. Great songs. I can see why they're her favorites !
    I think its because it was a recent release - 1994. Too bad ! If you don't know the songs you should check them out.

  34. D.... ....

    I know - last year she was very sad because she had lost several of her doggies. She cried quite a bit last year - and didn't talk all that long. It does make you sad !
    It was just a great pleasure to hear her for as long as we did. And - I'm with you - these aren't the best dj's on interviews !!
    Take care ... Toni

  35. D.... ....

    Well - maybe that was it - but - in the past she has definitely stayed on the line longer than she did. I hope that was the way it was - I would feel very sad it she felt she needed to get off because of time. Also this year they didn't play as many of us just plain folks calling in to wish her well.

  36. D.... ....

    Did you hear the 2nd one ? He pretty much rushed her off the air -she was definitely in the mood to talk and he didn't let her. I emailed the station - it really upset me. Last year she called 3 times - I'm not surprised she didn't call back. They had to keep replaying calls made earlier in the day. I was thrilled to hear her 1st call - but the rest of the program was kind of irritating....except for her great music ! lol

  37. D.... ....

    Hahahaha !!!
    Did you listen ? It was so great to hear her- and she was on for a really long time. I didn't appreciate her being rushed off the second time. Was it just me or was it kind of rude ?? She really sounded great - and even sang a little here and there ! Hope you enjoyed !

  38. D.... ....

    Well thank you ! I'm just happy someone enjoyed it - I have such a soft spot for that time.

  39. a.... ....
