Part A:

When trumpets were mellow, And every gal only had one fellow,
No need to remember when, 'Cause everything old is new again.

(Everything old is new again) Don't throw the past away,
You might need it some rainy day, Dreams can come true again,
When everything old is new again.

 

Part B:
Get out your white suit, your tap shoes and tails. Let's go backwards when forward fails,

And movie stars, you tho't were long dead, Now are framed beside your bed.

When trumpets were mellow, And every gal only had one fellow,
No need to remember when, 'Cause everything old is new again.

(Everything old is new again)

 

Part C:

Get out your white suit, your tap shoes and tails. Let's go backwards when forward fails,

But leave Greta Garbo alone, Be a movie star on your own.

 

Part D:
And don't throw the past away, You might need it some other rainy day.
Dreams can come true again, When everything old is new again.

(Everything old is new again) I might fall in love with you again.
