The Little Man Who Wasn't There Songtext
von Glenn Miller and His Orchestra

GLENN MILLER: Hello there, Texas, whatcha say?
Are you whistling in the dark just to scare the ghost away?
TEX BENEKE: I know there′s something following me that I can't see
Someone sure laid an awful hex on me!
GLENN MILLER: A hex?
Ah, Tex, that′s pretty far-fetched Man,
I'd say you're just a little bit tetched!
TEX BENEKE: You′d got a load of what I saw last night
You′d pass the Yankee Clipper on its maiden flight!
Last night I saw upon the stair
A little man who wasn't there
He wasn′t there again today
Oh, how I wish he'd go away


When I came home last night at three
The man was waiting there for me
But when I looked around the hall
I couldn′t see him there at all
Go away, go away
Don't you come back any more
Go away, go away
And please don′t slam the door
(SLAM!)
Last night I saw upon the stair
A little man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
Oh, how I wish he′d go away
