Song lyrics:
When I think that you're the one boy I adore,
Gratitude inflates my bosom more and more.
When I see your style and grace,
Analyse your smiling face,
Then I know how much I must be thankful for
Thank your father,
Thank your mother,
Thank them both for meeting up with one another.
Thank the horse that pulled the buggy that night,
Thank your ma and pa for feeling just right.
Thank the June night,
Thank the moonlight
That caressed them from up above;
And thank goodness for their marriage
And for the baby carriage,
Or I'd have no-one to love.
Oh, thank your father, -
Thank them both for meeting up with one another.
Thank the horse that pulled the buggy that night,
Thank your ma and pa for feelin' just right.
Thank the June night,
Thank the moonlight
That caressed them from above;
And thank goodness for their marriage
And for the baby carriage,
Or I'd have no-one to love.

@aubergined Helen Kane was a novelty singer, meaning her songs and voice were considered considered humorous and whimsical, not exactly beautiful. Novelty music was very popular in the 1920s and 30s. Plus, she inspired the character of Betty Boop, so many viewed her as a real life cartoon character because of her voice and mannerisms.

Is that her real voice? If it is, it sounds really... unique. But I can picture it considered beautiful in the 1930s or something.
