The Best Things In Life Are Free (1927)
The moon belongs to everyone,
The best things in life are free.
The stars belong to everyone,
They gleam there for you and me.
The flowers in spring, the robins that sing,
The moonbeams that shine, they're yours, they're mine.
And love can come to everyone,
The best things in life are free.
The flowers in spring
The robins that sing
The sun beams that shine
They're yours, they're mine
And love can come to anyone
Because the best things in life are free
Lyrics by B.G. DeSylva and Lew Brown.
Composed by Ray Henderson.
Recorded by Hank Mobley; The Ink Spots; many more.
Introduced in the stage musical "Good News" by Mary Lawlor and John Price Jones, 1927
