I Love Lucy - Theme Song

Theme Song

The title music was written as an instrumental. Lyrics were written by Harold Adamson, who was nominated five times for an Oscar. The lyrics to 'I Love Lucy' were sung by Desi Arnaz in the episode "Lucy's Last Birthday":

I love Lucy and she loves me.
We're as happy as two can be.
Sometimes we quarrel but then
How we love making up again.

Lucy kisses like no one can.
She's my missus and I'm her man,
And life is heaven you see,
'Cause I love Lucy, Yes I love Lucy, and Lucy loves me!

The song was covered by Michael Franks on the 1993 album Dragonfly Summer. In the 1970s, the Wilton Place Street Band had a top-40 hit with a disco version of the theme, "Disco Lucy".

Famous quotes containing the words theme and/or song:

    The saying, “The Magyar is much too lazy to be bored,” is worth thinking about. Only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.—A theme for a great poet would be God’s boredom on the seventh day of creation.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    They seldom looked happy. They passed one another without a word in the elevator, like silent shades in hell, hell-bent on their next look from a handsome stranger. Their next rush from a popper. The next song that turned their bones to jelly and left them all on the dance floor with heads back, eyes nearly closed, in the ecstasy of saints receiving the stigmata.
    Andrew Holleran (b. 1943)
