Dan Hicks - Hummin' to Myself lyrics

Hmm... Hmm... I've got the words And I've got the tune Is anyone listening? I've got to know soon Or do I sit by myself And sing for health? Am I hummin' to myself? I can jazz it up Or sing it real straight (real jazzy!) The words and melody Are right up to date But when I croon some nice tune Most everyone's late (way late!) I'm just hummin' to myself When I hum, I hum like this: Hmm, hmm [scatting] I sing a soliloquy My voice is crying out And I don't miss a beat (no beats are missing) The rhythm's poundin' And the melody's sweet But I got nobody to tap their feet (nobody, nobody) So I'm hummin' to myself [scatting] I got the words, the rhythm Rhyme and the song And I can sing all day and all night long But the room is empty Is there somethin' wrong? I'm just hummin' to myself I'm just hummin' to myself I am hummin' to myself...
