Jump to: navigation, search

"Merrily We Roll Along" is a song loosely based on the 1847 song "Good Night Ladies" by E. P. Christy. Written by Charlie Tobias, Murray Mencher, and Eddie Cantor circa 1936[1], it is best known as the theme of Warner Bros.' Merrie Melodies cartoon series. In 1995 it was used as the ending theme of Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries.

The song shares a title with the 1934 play Merrily We Roll Along by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart, but is unrelated to it.

Merrily we roll along
Roll along, roll along
Merrily we roll along
O’er the deep blue sea

The related verse portion of "Good Night, Ladies":

Hope you had a happy time
Happy time, happy time
Hope you had a happy time
We had a good time, too

The tune is also used to make a song from the poem "Mary Had a Little Lamb":

Mary had a little lamb
Little lamb, little lamb
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow
