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 theme of my autobiography could only be repetition.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky—
So this winged hour is dropped to us from above.
Oh! clasp we to our hearts, for deathless dower,
This close-companioned inarticulate hour
When twofold silence was the song of love.”
—Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)
