Happy Easter To You



I'm a sucker for old musicals. Every year at Christmas, I make a point of watching White Christmas and Holiday Inn. And at Easter, it's "Easter Parade" with Fred Astaire and Judy Garland. I've been listening to the Easter Parade soundtrack all week and have picked the song "Happy Easter" to share with you. So click on arrow to play the song. The lyrics are posted below. Sing along if you like.



[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Passerby:]
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Passerby:]
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Me oh my, there's a lot to buy
There is shopping I must do
Happy Easter to you

[Salesgirl:]
Here's a hat that you must take home
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Salesgirl:]
Here's a lid for milady's dome
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Salesgirl:]
This one's made for the hat parade on the well-known avenue
This one's nice and it's worth the price
Happy Easter to you

[Salesgirl:]
Here's a hat for a pretty face
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Salesgirl:]
Here is one that is trimmed with lace
Happy Easter

[Astaire:]
Happy Easter

[Salesgirl:]
Here's a touch of the quaint old Dutch
It's so old it's always new

[Salesgirl:]
This in white is exactly right
Happy Easter to you

[Salesgirl:]
I think that is a lovely hat
Maybe you think so too?

[Astaire:]
I do

[Salesgirl:]
Wrap it up for the chap with a very happy Easter to you

[Chorus:]
Never saw such a lovely day
Happy Easter

Everything seems to come your way
Happy Easter

My oh me, what a kick to be
On the well-known avenue

Me oh my, you're a lucky guy
Happy Easter to you
Happy Easter
Happy Easter
Happy Easter to you
