JEEPERS CREEPERS (GOING PLACES, 1938)

Jeepers Creepers is one of Louis Armstrong's famous songs and was used in the 1938 musical comedy Going Places. The film stars Dick Powell and Ronald Reagan. The song has stood the test of time in fact, in 2001, the horror film Jeepers Creepers also used the song as its 'unofficial' theme sang by Paul Whiteman and his Swing Wing.



JEEPERS CREEPERS

sung by: Louis Armstrong


Jeepers, creepers....where’d ya get them peepers

Jeepers, creepers...where’d ya get those eyes

Gosh oh, git up....how’d they get so lit up

Gosh oh, gee oh....how’d they get that size


Golly gee...When you turn them heaters on

Woe is me...got to put my cheaters on

Jeepers, creepers....where’d ya get them peepers

Oh, those weepers....how they hypnotize


(INSTRUMENTAL)



Jeepers, creepers....where’d ya get them peepers

Oh, those weepers....how they hypnotize

Where did ya get those

Golly where’d ya get those

Where did ya get them there eyes…

  1. There are more lyrics...but I don't know if they were sung in this movie (or any other for that matter!)
    I don't care when the weather man says it's raining,
    You'll never hear me complaining,
    I'm certain the sun will shine,
    I don't care how the weather vane points,
    When the weather vane points to gloomy,
    It's gotta be sunny to me,
    When your eyes look into mine;
    Jeepers creepers, etc...
