I can't figure out how to show you this site, but it's on u-tube.
Find: Betty Hutton, "The Perils of Pauline", The Sewing Machine Song.
This was the opening scene from a 40s musical, "The Perils of Pauline", starring Betty Hutton who passed away in '07 at age of 86.
She is most remembered in “Annie Get Your Gun” and “The Greatest Show on Earth”.
Lyrics:..... The Sewing Machine Song
Ohhh the sewing machine, the sewing machine
A girl’s best friend
If I didn’t have my sewing machine
I’d a come to no good end
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And wheel the wheel by day
So by night I feel so weary that I never get out to play
Ohhh the sewing machine, the sewing machine
A friend in need
If I didn’t having my sewing machine
A wicked life I’d lead
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And dream about romance
So by night I feel so weary that I never get out to dance
Ohhh the sewing machine, the sewing machine
Me pride and joy
If I didn’t having me sewing machine
I’d a married James McCoy
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And that’s the end of Jim
‘Cause by night I get so weary I don’t even look good to him
