Love Is Sweeping the Country

GEORGE GERSHWIN, IRA GERSHWIN

Why are people gay all the night and day
Feeling as they never felt before?

What is the thing that makes them sing?

Rich man, poor man, thief
Doctor, lawyer, chief
Feel a feeling that they can't ignore

It plays a part in every heart
And every heart is shouting "Encore!"

Love is sweeping the country

Waves are hugging the shore

All the sexes from Maine to Texas
Have never felt such love before

See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above

Each girl and boy alike sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll soon be national

Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love!

Spring is in the air
Each mortal loves his neighbor

Who's that loving pair?
It's Capital and Labor!

Florida and Cal- ifornia get together
In a festival of oranges and weather

Boston upper zones
Are changing social habit's
And I hear the Cohns
Are taking up the Cabots

Taxi men take dimes
And never curse the traffic
While the New York Times
Adores the New York Graphic

Love is sweeping the country
Waves are hugging the shore all the sexes
From Maine to Texas
Have never felt such love before
See them billing and cooing
Like the birdies above
Each girl and boy alike sharing joy alike
Feels that passion'll soon be national
Love is sweeping the country
There never was so much love!
