The Old Master Painter with Peggy Lee - Mel Torme

That old master painter from the faraway hills

Painted the violets and the daff-o-dills

He put the purple in the twilight haze

Then did a rainbow for the rainy days

Dreamed up the murals on the blue summer skies

Painted the devil in my darlin’s eyes

Captured the dreamer with a thousand thrills

The old master painter from the faraway hills

Then came his masterpiece and when he was through

He smiled down from heaven and he gave me you

What a beautiful job on that wonderful day

That old master painter from the hills far away

(repeat) Dreamed up etc.
