"The Glow Worm" lyrics - JOHNNY MERCER

Shine little glow worm, glimmer
Shine little glow worm, glimmer
Lead us, lest too far we wander
Love's sweet voice is callin' yonder

Shine little glow worm, glimmer
Hey there, don't get dimmer
Light the path below, above
Lead us on to love

Glow little glow worm, fly of fire
Glow like an incandescent wire
Glow for the female of the species
Turn on the AC and the DC

This night could use a little brightnin'
Light up you little ol' bug of lightnin'
When you gotta glow, you gotta glow
Glow little glow worm, glow

Glow little glow worm, glow and glimmer
Swim through the sea of night, little swimmer
Thou aeronautical boll weevil
Illuminate yon woods primeval

See how the shadows deep and darken
You and your chick should get to sparkin'
I got a gal that I love so
Glow little glow worm, glow

Little glow worm, turn the key on
You are equipped with taillight neon
You got a cute vest pocket Mazda
Which you can make both slow and fazda

I don't know who you took a shine to
Or who you're out to make a sign to
I got a gal that I love so
Glow little glow worm, put on a show worm
Glow little glow worm, glow
