Notes

The playbill for By Bernstein listed Bernstein as the lyricist, but the official Leonard Bernstein site (www.leonardbernstein.com) lists Comden and Green as the lyricists. According to the liner notes for the record on which it received its first commercial recording (Ben Bagley's Leonard Bernstein Revisited), Comden and Green weren't sure if they'd written the lyric. They thought it might have been by John Latouche.
