Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue Lyrics

[dorothycooper]

My mother was very musical. She played piano.
I was very glad I taped her playing the piano playing this and other songs. I taped her in93. She passed in 2000. But I can see her whenever I want to.
She was 84 when she passed.

[HeavyMetalBluegrass]

I remember hearing this a youngster. Our Bluegrass band just decided to cover it for an upcoming old-folks home gig. It puts a smile on my face to hear it now.

My uncle had a self playing piano that you would pump with your feet and this was one of the song reels he had for it.

I haven’t heard this song in probably 30 years, but could still sing along. The funniest thing is, as a kid I thought they were singing “cootchie cootchie cootchie coo” instead if “could she...”! My mom was 5’2” with eyes of blue so this song has special memories.

[Blondie]

Imma gen z, but I still like the old fashioned songs like this.

[majorronaldmandell]

I’m 69, and my parents were of the WWII generation, and loved this song.

[michaeltriba]

My daddy was born in 1910 and my mama in 1916. Mother was 5'2" tall and I get my baby blues from her! 💙💙 This music was from their wonderful era. My 4 siblings and I were Baby Boomers born between 1949 and 1961. We grew up with this REAL and WONDERFUL music!!! 🎶💖 This makes me SO HAPPY to hear this! 😍🎹 I have a sheet music book entitled "Treasury of Best Loved Songs - 114 All-Time Family Favorites from Readers Digest." It was published in 1972 and includes this song. I have been wanting to build a YouTube channel for two years and must finally do it this year! 😁 This will be the FIRST song I will play (and maybe sing) and I will dedicate it to my beloved mother! 💖💖 This song was written in 1925 by composer Ray Henderson. My mama was just 9 years old when he wrote this hit. Little wonder why she loved this song her entire life and was so happy when I played music of this era for her and dad. If any parents with young children are reading this, I suggest to give your dear children the Gift of Music with either piano (or other instrument) lessons and/or dancing or singing lessons!!! 🎶🎹🎻🎷💃🕺

I might be young and still going to school, but this is pure gold! Love this kind of music

My 7 year old daughter loves this song.

Parenting DONE RIGHT.

[lindagill]

This reminds me of my beloved grandma! Exactly! So beautiful! & she used to sing this to me when I was little!

[MaXG]

My mom taught me this song on her guitar. A big old hollow body silver tone guitar. It was the first chords I pretty much learned. I was probably 7 or 8 years old. The guitar at that time seemed like it was as big as a cello. What a great memory.

[Morgans_Mom]

I am also a Gen Z... when I was 3 yrs old, my aunt taught me this song and I would sing it all the time.

[TheOrlaf]

They could really dance back then compared to the moves now

[shannonmcbroom]

My grandma dedicated this song and played it for me on piano a couple months before she passed away and said it was her song for me cause I’m 5’2 with blue eyes

[marychristensen]

I always sing this song to my blue eyed dog but instead I sing three foot two.

[royaldramaandbsbrock]

I love this song. Reminds me of a resident from the assisted living facility where I used to work. She would dance along with it whenever anyone would sing it.

[ambermorris]

When I graduated from elementary school (I’m now 60), this was 1 of the 4 songs we sang

[gretchenchadwick]

My son is special needs and he loves classic songs 🎵 like this one he first heard about it from the famous sitcom I Love Lucy episode Ricky loses his voice.

[sherrylgentry]

My daddy sang this to my mother almost every day. She was ALL of this, except she had diamond rings. My daddy saw to that!

[googlyincorporated]

I just learned this song on ukulele. Gotta say i love it.
