still dancing!
listen to this song while viewing
JUNE IS BUSTIN' OUT ALL OVER
March went out like a lion
Awakin' up the water in the bay;
Then April cried
and stepped aside,
And along came pretty little May!
May was full of promises
But she didn't keep 'em quick enough for some
And the crowd of doubtin' thomases
Was predictin' that the summer'd never come
But it's comin' by dawn,
We can feel it come,
You can feel it in your heart
You can see it in the ground
You can see it in the trees
You can smell it in the breeze
Look around! Look around! Look around!
June is bustin' out all over
All over the meadow and the hill!
Buds're bustin' outa bushes
And the rompin' river pushes
Ev'ry little wheel that wheels beside the mill!
June is bustin' out all over
The feelin' is gettin' so intense,
That the young Virginia creepers
Have been huggin' the bejeepers
Outa all the mornin' glories on the fence!
Because it's June...
June is bustin' out all over!
The saplin's are bustin' out with sap!
Love has found my brother, Junior,
And my sister's even loonier!
And my Ma is gettin' kittenish with Pap!
June in bustin' out all over
To ladies and men
are payin' court.
Lotsa ships are kept
at anchor
Jest because the captains
hanker
Fer the comfort they kin only get in port!
Because it's June... June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
June makes the bay look bright and new
Sails gleamin' bright on sunlit blue
June is bustin' out all over!
The sheep aren't
sleepin' anymore!
All the rams that chase ewe-sheep
All determined there'll be
new sheep
and the ewe-sheep aren't even keepin' score!
On acounta it's June! June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
Rodgers & Hammerstein

Outa all the mornin' glories on the fence!
Because it's June...
June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
Fresh and alive and gay and young
June is a love song, sweetly sung
Just because it's June, June, June!

Because it's June... June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
June makes the bay look bright and newSails gleamin' bright on sunlit blue
June is bustin' out all over
The ocean is full of
Jacks and Jills,
With the little tail a-swishing'
Ev'ry lady fish is wishin'
That a male would come
And grab 'er by the gills!

Girl what a beautiful welcome to June!!!!
'June is bustin' out all over!' I remember singing this when I was a kid everytime it got to June 1st, and guess what, I'm still doing it to this day. It does help of course that here in the UK we seem to be having an unusually gloriously sunny start to June, fingers crossed!
Thanks for this, it made my day again - doesn't take a lot I know.
