The Carol Burnett Show Theme Song Lyrics
Lyrics by: Joe Hamilton
Carol's Theme
I'm so glad we had this time together,
Just to have a laugh, or sing a song.
Seems we just get started and before you Know it
Comes the time we have to say, "So long".
There's a time you wanna sigh for dreamin.
And a time for things you have to do.
The time I love the best is any evening
I can spend a moment here with you.
When the time comes and I'm feelin' lonely
And I'm feelin' oh so blue.
I just sit back and think of you only
And the happiness still comes through.
That's why I'm glad we had this time together.
Cause it makes me feel like I'm along.
Seems we just get started and before you know it
Comes the time we have to say, "So Long".
Good night everybody!

A Few Facts Courtesy of Wikipedia
The Carol Burnett Show is a sketch comedy television show starring Carol Burnett, Tim Conway, Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence, and Lyle Waggoner. It originally ran on CBS from September 11, 1967 to March 29, 1978 for 278 episodes, and originated from CBS Television City's Studio 33 (also known as the Bob Barker Studio).The popular variety show made the stars household names with such sketches as As the Stomach Turns, Went With the Wind (a parody of Gone With the Wind featuring a scene with Burnett as Scarlett O'Hara in the dress made from a window curtain, complete with the curtain rod), Carol & Sis, Mr. Tudball and Mrs. Wiggins, The Family (which would later spin off into a show called Mama's Family), Nora Desmond (Burnett's send-up of Gloria Swanson's character Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard), and Stella Toddler. The long-running show was frequently nominated for Emmys, and won three times.
A unique feature of the show consisted of a question and answer segment involving the audience in CBS Studio 33 and Carol Burnett. Burnett usually did this for about 3-4 minutes at the start of most shows. Burnett would ask for the lights in the audience to be turned up ("Let's bump up the lights...") and then randomly pick audience members who raised their hand to ask her a question. This informality was possible due to the design of Studio 33; cameras were to the left and right of the stage with one below in the pit and one suspended, so the actors were very close to the audience.
The Ear Tug
Through this program, Burnett became known for her acting and talent, and for ending each show by tugging her ear, which was a message to her grandmother who had raised her, letting her know that she was doing well and that she loved her.

- I'm old enough to remember the Carol Burnett Show. It was a favorite. I'm still a huge fan. When I was working as an addictions counselor, we often played a video that Carol made for the addictions field. I believe she had a family member with an alcohol problem. Thanks for the memories this lens brought back, and thanks for giving my Clipart lens a special Squid blessing.
