Johnny Mercer

“In the cool, cool, cool of the evening, tell 'em I'll be there.”

“I wanna be around to pick up the pieces when somebody breaks your heart.”

“I'm an old cowhand from the Rio Grande.”

“Jeepers Creepers, where'd ya get those peepers?”

“Writing is a business. It's a craft. You have to become a student of it. All the good writers are.”

“On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe.”

“You must have been a beautiful baby, 'cause baby, look at you now.”

“Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive, E-lim-i-nate the Negative.”

“That old black magic has me in its spell.”

“Hooray for Hollywood, where you're terrific if you're even good.”

“My huckleberry friend, Moon River, and me.”

“Any place I hang my hat is home.”

“One for my baby, and one more for the road.”

“Dream, when you're feeling blue. Dream, that's the thing to do.”

“Moon river, wider than a mile, I'm crossing you in style some day.”

“The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a child at play.”

“Skylark, have you anything to say to me? Won't you tell me where my love can be?”

“Something's gotta give.”

“Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”

“Come rain or come shine, I'm gonna love you like nobody's loved you.”
