(Formerly The Ol'Kunnel's Bar And Grill)
For Seymour Simons, "All of Me" was just one of many song hits that he wrote while leading his own orchestra in Detroit in the early '30s. But for Gerald Marks, his collaborator, it was the start of a song writing career that was to earn him citations from all over the U.S.A. Belle Baker introduced the song on radio in 1931, and it was featured the next year in the Joan Bennett film Careless Lady. In 1952, Frank Sinatra made it a hit again in the film Meet Danny Wilson. For a while, jazz men tended to swing the tune and up the tempo, but in 1980, Willie Nelson revived the original ballad approach.
All of me,
Why not take all of me?
Can't you see I'm no good without you?
Take my lips,
I want to lose them;
Take my arms, I'll never use them.
Your goodbye
Left me eyes that cry.
How can I Go on dear without you?
You took the part
That once was my heart,
So why not take all of me?
