Good Morning
Debbie Reynolds Donald O'Connor & Gene Kelly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Good Morning
Good Morning
We've talked the whole night through
Good Morning
Good Morning to you

Good Morning
Good Morning
It's great to stay up late
Good Morning
Good Morning to you

When the band began to play the stars were shinging bright
Now the milkman's on his way
and it's too late to say good night

So, Good Morning
Good Morning
Sun beams will soon smile through
Good Morning
Good Morning to you and you and you and you

Good Morning
Good Morning
We've gabbed the whole night through
Good Morning
Good Morning to you
Nothing could be grander than to be in Louisiana

In the morning
In the morning
It's great to stay up late
Good Morning
Good Morning to you
I'd be as yippe if it wasn't Mississippi

When we left the movie show the future wasn't bright
But came the dawn the show goes on
and I don't want to say good night

So say good morning
Good Morning
Rainbows are shining through
Good Morning
Good Morning

Bonjour
Monsour
Buenos Días
Muchas Frías
Bongiorno
Montichorno
Gutten Morgen
Blakich Morgen
Good Morning to you

Waka laka laka laka laka laka wa
Waka laka laka laka laka laka wa
Waka laka laka laka laka laka wa

¡Olé!

Bravo

This movie has THE best dance sequences I have ever seen. So crisp, synchronized, and catchy. An instant classic I’ve enjoyed since I was 5.

@princessthyemis

ME TOO!! my mom sang this to me when I was little! I actually had no idea it was a real song until today! I thought my mom invented it!

@ILuvAyeAye

Awww, I was just commenting the same thing! My mom would say “we slept the whole night through” instead hah.

@shanisafan

Watch the Nicholas Brothers choreography in Stormy Weather. You will be amazed by the dance moves in that clip.

@mimidavis9534

My Nanna used to sing this to me every morning when she woke me up. Now I sing it to my son. I used to watch Singing in the Rain on her VCR all the time. Great memories.
