Sheet music from the 1937 Warner Bros. film The Singing Marine. The film, starring Mountain View (Stone County) native Dick Powell, tells the story of a young marine from Arkansas who impresses his friends so much with his talent that they help send him to New York to compete in an amateur talent contest. Success sets him up for trouble in his career, in romance, and in the U.S. Marine Corps.
