I'll Get By (As Long As I Have You)
Harry James (#1 in 1944)
- words by Roy Turk, music by Fred E. Ahlert
- written in 1928, it was one of the biggest hits of the late 20s
- theme song of the 1943 movie "A Guy Named Joe" starring Spencer Tracy and Irene Dunne
I'll get by
As long as I
Have you
Though there be rain
And darkness too
I'll not complain
I'll see it through
Though I may
Be far away
It's true
Say, what care I
Dear, I'll get by
As long as I
Have you
