Thanks for posting Kitty, this is when music was special. Johnny Mercer had a really smooth voice. 5stars for sure!

I'm doing a Tribute To Johnny Mercer program on November 14th, to celebrate Johnny's 100th birthday and introduce the Swedish people to his importance. This song and his version is the best there is. So natural.

Mercer wrote it, but Bing sung it as well. In fact, a whole lot of people have sung it. Back in those days, a lot of musicians sung the same songs and no one would get sued for copy-write infringement or any of that nonsense.

So Bing ripped this guy off maybe?

Posting appreciated. I used to ride this very train just about every Summer when in grade school, along with my siblings. We'd ride from Aurora, Illinois to Atchison, Kansas where my father's family lived. Later in life, I married a "trainiac." So, we take trains even when planes would be faster. Happy Railing ALL!

Here from Tom and Jerry.
