Without a Song
Lanza Mario Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Without a song the road would never bend
When things go wrong a man ain't got a friend
Without a song
That field of corn would never see a plow
That field of corn would be deserted now
A man is born but he's no good no how
Without a song
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
I'll never know what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know what makes that grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song
I've-a got my trouble and woe and, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
I'll-a never know what makes that rain to fall
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all

What a voice! He could have sung at the Metropolitan Opera. He was from
Philadelphia, Pa. He died young. I went to see all his movies. Kathryn Grayson sang so well together!

I was 4 years old then there is no music like this today! I am so glad I lived in the 1950's and 1960's!
