Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a mellow tone
Feeling fancy free
And I'm not alone
I've got company
Everything's okay
The live long day
With this mellow song
I can't go wrong
[Verse 2]
In a mellow tone
That's the way to live
If you mope and groan
Something's gotta give
Just go your way
And laugh and play
There's joy unknown
In a mellow tone
[Verse 3]
In a mellow tone
[Verse 4]
In a mellow tone
Feeling fancy free
And I'm not alone
I've got company
Everything's okay
The live long day
With this mellow song
I can't go wrong
[Verse 5]
In a mellow tone
That's the way to live
If you mope and groan
Something's gotta give
Just go your way
And laugh and play
There's joy unknown
In a mellow tone
In a mellow tone
In a mellow tone
Written by: Duke Ellington, Milt Gabler
