what are the words, does anyone know, to the song that starts:

"If the nightengales, could sing like you, 
they'd sing much sweeter than they do..."

also

how about the song that begins with :

"In the summertime, when all the leaves and trees are green,
the red bird sings, I'll be blue 'cause you won't have my love"

The nightengale song is by Roger Miller (ex-Nashville dj) and entitled
"In the Summertime" i think. Don't know the first.

I thought the nightingale song was "You've Brought a New Kind of Love to Me"
from Horsefeathers with the Marx Brothers.
