I'm goin' to change my way of livin', boys, (if) that ain't enough, Well then I'll change the way I strut my stuff, Nobody wants you when you're old and gray. There'll be some changes made to-daaay. There'll be some changes made. Transcribed by Hit Parade |-----------------Another Version-------------| There'll Be Some Changes Made Benny Goodman Lyric by Billy Higgins Music by W. Benton Overstreet - Note: this is taken from the sheet music originally published 1921, 1923. I don't know if it is the Benny Goodman version. I also do not know the order (verse-chorus-verse-chorus) as the sheet music is a bit confusing. Hope it's useful. If not, corrections are welcome. They say don't change the old for the new, But I've found out this will never do When you grow old you don't last long You're here today and then tomorrow you're gone, I loved a man(gal) for many years gone by, I tho't his(her) love for me would never die, He(She) made some changes that would never do From now on I'm goin' to make some changs too. Chorus: For there's a change in the weather There's a change in the sea So from now on there'll be a change in me My walk will be diff'rent my talk and my name Nothin' about me is goin' to be the same, I'm goin' to change my way of livin' if that ain't enough, Then I'll change the way that I strut my stuff, 'cause nobody wants you when you're old and gray Ther'll be some change made. Verse: They say the old time things are the best, That may be very good for all the rest But I'm goin' to let the old things be 'Cause they are certainly not suited for me, There was a time when I thought that way, That's why I'm all alone here today Since ev'ry one of these days seeks something new From now on I'm goin' to seek some new things too. Chorus: For there's a change in the fashions, Ask the fiminine folks Even Jack Benny has been changing jokes, I must make some changes from old to the new I must do things just the same as others do, I'm goin' to change my long, tall Mamma(Daddy) for a ittle short Fat, Goin' to change the number where I live at. I must have some lovin' or I'll fade away, There'll be some changes made. From: "David B Voss" Here are additional choruses that appear on the inside page in the sheet music. Interesting. 1. There's a change in your manner And a change in your way There was time once when you was O.K. You once said you save ev'ry kiss for my sake Now your're giving all the girls an even break I'm gonna send out invitations to the men I know Cause your're gettin' colder than a Eskimo I must have my lovin' or I'll fade away There'll be some changes made to-day There'll be some changes made. 2.. For there's a change in your manner There's a change in your style And here of late you never wear a smile You don't seem to act like a real lover should You can't thrill your mamma if your're made of wood I gotta have a man who loves me like a real live Sheik With a tasty kiss that lingers for a week I'm not over sixty so it's time to say There'll be some changes made to-day There'll be some changes made. 3. For there's a change in your squewezin' There's a change in your kiss It used to have a kick that I now miss You'd set me on fire when you used to tease Now each time you call I just sit there and freeze You had a way of making love that made a hit with me One time you could thrilll me but it's plain to see You're not so ambitious as you used to be There'll be some changes made to-day There'll be some changes made. 4. There's a change in the weather There's a change in the sea From now on There'll be a change in me BRI'm tired of working all of my life BRI'm gonna grab a rich husband and be his wife BRI'm going to ride around in a big limousine BRWear fancy clothes and put on plenty of steam BRNo more tired puppies, will I treat you mean BRThere'll be some changes made to-day BRThere'll be some changes made. BR BR5. BR BRFor there's a change in your manner BRThere's a change in your smile BRFrom now on you can't be worth my while BRI'm right here to tell you with you I'm thru BRYour brand of lovin' will never do BRI'm gettin' tired of eating just butter and bread BRI could enjoy a few pork chops instead BRYou know variety is the spice of life they say BRThere'll be some changes made to-day (I'll get mine) BRThere'll be some changes made.
