PLEASE

Bing Crosby

(Robin, Rainger)

- Bing first recorded "Please" Sept. 16, 1932 with the Anson Weeks Orchestra.

It spent 16 weeks in the charts, including six weeks at No. 1. Bing

recorded it again July 27, 1940, with John Scott Trotter's Orchestra. And

it charted again the following January. According to Paul McCartney, the

Beatles first hit recording, "Please Please Me," was inspired by Bing's

recording of "Please."



Oh, Please.

Lend your little ear to my pleas

Lend a ray of cheer to my pleas

Tell me that you love me too.

Please

Let me hold you tight in my arms

I could find delight in your charms

Every night my whole life through.

Your eyes reveal that you have the soul of

An angel white as snow.

How long must I play the role of

A gloomy romeo?

Oh, Please.

Say you're not intending to please

Speed that happy ending and please

Tell me that you love me too.



(Bing whistles and da da dees)



Your eyes reveal that you have the soul of

An angel white as snow.

How long must I play the role of

A gloomy romeo?

Oh, please

Say you're not intending to tease

Speed that happy ending and please,

Tell me that you love me too.
