Blake’s most famous song and biggest commercial hit was this song written for the 1921 Broadway musical Shuffle Along. In the show, Jessie Williams finds a cause in Harry Walton, a virtuous man who aims to topple the crooked mayor of his city by running for office. It gained new popularity in 1948,...
(Verse)
There's some fellow for me in this world
Harry's his name
That's what I claim
Why for ev'ry fellow there
Must be a girl
I've found my mate
By kindness of fate
(Chorus)
I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me
The heav'nly blisses
Of his kisses
Fill me with ecstasy
He's sweet just like choc'late candy
And just like honey from a bee
Oh I'm just wild about Harry
And he's just wild about
Cannot do without
He's just wild about me
(Verse 2)
There are some fellows that like all the girls
I mean the vamps
With cruel lamps
But my Harry says
I'm the girl of all girls
I'm his Ideal
How happy I feel
(Chorus)
I'm just wild about Harry
And Harry's wild about me
The heav'nly blisses
Of his kisses
Fill me with ecstacy
He's sweet just like choc'late candy
And just like honey from a bee
Oh I'm just wild about Harry
And he's just wild about
Cannot do without
He's just wild about me
I’m Just Wild About Harry was written by Eubie Blake & Noble Sissle.
