Cabin Kids - Dinah






Dinah
Is there anyone finer
In the state of Carolina?
If there is and you know her
Show her to me

Dinah
Got those Dixie eyes blazin'
How I love to sit and gazin'
To the eyes of Dinah Lee

Every night why do I
Shake with fright?
Because my Dinah might
Change her mind about me

Bop, be-dee, Bop, Bo-bo-bo-bo

Dinah
Should she wander to China
I would hop an ocean liner
Just to be with Dinah Lee

With Dinah Lee...



"Dinah" is a popular song published in 1925 and introduced by Ethel Waters (Wikipedia)

What I didn't know was how popular singer, actress  Fannye Rose Shore identified so much with the song that she took her stage name from it: Dinah Shore
