[Intro]
I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do, what to do, what to do?
The outlook was decidedly blue
And as I walk through the dreary streets alone
It turned out to be the ginchiest day
Cookie and I have known
[Verse]
Foggy day in London town
Had me kinda' low, had me real down
I viewed the morning with great alarm
The British Museum had lost its charm
A-how long I wonder, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles hadn't passed
For suddenly you jumped up there
And through foggy London Town the sun was shining
Shining everywhere-ere
[Verse]
That certain night, the night we met
There was magic abroad in the air
There were angels dining at The Ritz
And a nightingale sang in Berkely Square
[Verse]
I may be right, I may be wrong
I'm perfectly willing to swear
That when you turned and smiled at me
A nightingale sang in Berkely Square
[Verse]
The moon it lingered over London Town
Puzzled moon wore a frown
How could he know that we were so in love?
The whole world seemed upside down
[Verse]
The streets of town were paved with stars, what a crazy affair
And when we kissed and said goodnight
On a foggy day in London
On a foggy, foggy day in London
The London Bridge was fallin' down
Fallin' down, fallin' down
[Outro]
On a foggy day, on a foggy day
On a foggy, foggy day in London
Sha-du-bu, du-deo-de-de, de-ba-do, du-bu
Town!
[Instrumental]
