Lyrics:
[Men]
June is bustin' out all over!
All over the meadow and the hill!
Buds're bustin' outa bushes
And the rompin' river pushes
Ev'ry little wheel that wheels beside the mill!
June is bustin' out all over!
The feelin' is gettin' so intense
That the young Virginia creepers
Hev been huggin' the bejeepers
Outa all the mornin'-glories on the fence.
Because it's June!
June, June, June
Jest because it's June, June, June!
June is bustin' out all over!
The ocean is full of Jacks and Jills,
With her little tail a-swishin'
Ev'ry lady fish is wishin'
That a male would come
And grab her by the gills!
[All]
Because it's June! June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
[Barbara]
Fresh and alive and gay and young
June is a love song, sweetly sung
[Girls]
June is bustin' out all over!
The saplin's are bustin' out with sap!
Love hes found my brother, "Junior,"
And my sister's even lunier,
And my ma is gettin' kittenish with Pap.
[All]
June is bustin' out all over!
[Barbara]
June is bustin' out all over!
The sheep aren't sleepin' any more.
All the rams that chase ewe sheep
Are determined there'll be new sheep,
And the ewe sheep aren't even keepin' score!
[All]
Because it's June! June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
It's June! It's June, June, June
Just because it's June, June...
[Claramae]
March went out like a lion
A-whippin' up the water in the bay.
Then April cried and stepped aside,
And along came pretty little May!
May was full of promises,
But she didn't keep 'em quick enough for some,
And a crowd of Doubtin' Thomases
Was predictin' that the summer'd never come.
[Men]
But it's comin', by gum!
Y' ken can feel it come,
Y' ken can feel it in yer heart,
Y' ken can see it in the ground,
[Girls]
Y' ken can see it in the trees,
Y' ken can smell it in the breeze
[All]
Look around, look around, look around!
[Claramae]
To ladies the men are payin' court.
Lotsa ships are kept at anchor
Jest because the captains hanker
Fer the comfort they ken only get in port!
[Barbara]
June makes the bay look bright and new,
Sails gleamin' white on sunlit blue.
[All]
You can hear it comin'!
[Claramae]
June is bustin' out all over
The moonlight is shining on the shore
And the girls who were contrary
With the boys in January,
Aren't nearly for contrary anymore!
[Claramae and Chorus]
Because it's June! June, June, June
Just because it's June, June, June!
[Ballet]
[All]
On accounta it's June!
June, June, June
Jest because it's June, June, June!

But it's comin, by gum!
Y' ken feel it come,
Y' ken feel it in yer heart,

Look around, look around, look around!

Buds're bustin' outa bushes,
And the rompin' river pushes
Ev'ry little wheel that wheels beside a mill.
