Phil Harris - The Old Master Painter (Remastered) Lyrics

Lyrics The Old Master Painter (Remastered) - Phil Harris



THE OLD MASTER PAINTER
This song *was* done by no fewer than six artists in 1950.
They charted thusly: Richard Hayes (#2); Dick Haymes (#4); Peggy Lee and
Mel Torme (#9); Phil Harris (#10); Snooky Lanson (#12); and Frank
Sinatra (#13) That old master painter from the faraway hills
Painted the violets and the daff-o-dills
He put the purple in the twilight haze
Then did a rainbow for the rainy days
Dreamed up the murals on the blue summer skies
Painted the devil in my darlin's eyes
Captured the dreamer with a thousand thrills
The old master painter from the faraway hills
Then came his masterpiece and when he was through
He smiled down from heaven and he gave me you
What a beautiful job on that wonderful day
That old master painter from the hills far away
(Repeat) Dreamed up etc.
