Put 'em in a Box - Nat King Cole Trio

You can take the moon, gather up the stars

And the robins that sing merrily

Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

You can take the flowers, down in lovers lane

And that sentimental poetry

Put 'em in a box, tie I’em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

Not for me, all that stuff

The dreams that ruin your sleep

Not for me, had enough

Love is one thing you can keep

You can take the plans and the wedding bells

And whoever sings, «Oh, promise me»

Put 'em in a box, tie I’em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

'Cause love and I we don’t agree

Hansoms through the park, kisses in the dark

All the promises made faithfully

Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

And you won’t go wrong if you take a song

Sung by Frankie Boy or Mr. C

Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

Not for me, all that stuff

The dreams that ruin your sleep

Not for me, had enough

Love is one thing you can keep

You know what to do with good old «Tea for two»

And the girl for you, the boy for me

Put 'em in a box, tie 'em with a ribbon

Throw 'em in the deep blue sea

'Cause love and I we don’t agree
