With his soft, baritone voice, Cole became an icon recording much mainstream, pop orientated material.

LYRICS

Just found joy I'm as happy as a baby boy, baby boy With another brand new choo-choo choy When I met my sweet Lorraine, Lorraine, Lorraine. A pair of eyes That are brighter tham the summer sky When you see them, you'll realize Why I love my sweet Lorraine. Now when it's rainin', I don't miss the sun Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho. And to think that I'm the lucky one That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho. Each night I pray That no one will steal her heart away, I can't wait until that lucky day When I marry sweet Lorraine. Now when it's rainin' I don't miss the sun Because it's in my baby's smile, whoa ho. And to think that I'm the lucky one That will lead her down the aisle, whoa ho ho. Each night I pray That no one will steal her heart away, I can't wait until that lucky day When I marry sweet Lorraine.
