Harry Lillis "Bing" Crosby (May 2, 1903 - October 14, 1977) was an American singer and actor whose career lasted from 1926 until his death in 1977. Bing Crosby's influence on popular culture and popular music is considerable as from 1934 to 1954 he held a nearly unrivaled command of record sales, radio ratings and motion picture grosses. He is usually considered to be a member of popular music's "holy trinity" of ultra-icons, alongside Elvis Presley and The Beatles. Bing Crosby popularized singing with conversational ease, or crooning. His musical interpretations amalgamated rhythm and romance with scat singing, whistling, rhythmic improvisation and melodic paraphrasing as elements of a hotter, sexier sound than had been conceived before.

Last Night On The Backporch Lyrics
Bing Crosby
There's a girl I'm wild about, Every time I take her out
I hurry, I scurry, I worry so.
And we always can be found, where there's no-one else around
If I lost her, what a blow, I love her oh-wo-oh
Yes I love her in the morning and I love her at night
I love her yes I love her when the stars are shining bright
I love her in the Springtime and I love her in the Fall
But last night on the back porch, I love her best of all
Oh I love her in the morning and I love her at night
First time that I dug this chick it was true love at first sight
I love her in the Springtime and I love her in the Fall
But last time, gave her my frat pin then I loved her best of all
Oh I love her in the Springtime and I love her in the Fall
But last night Maw went shopping and then I loved her best of all
