(NBC Specials, 1958; ABC Sundays, 1959) [ABC weekly rerun title: "The Shirley Temple Show"]
[Max Meth shared credit in the ASCAP database, but not on the printed sheet music. He was a well-known Broadway and TV orchestra conductor and music director. Writers Mack David & Jerry Livingston had previously collaborated with Al Hoffman on "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes" from Walt Disney's "Cinderella." Not sure if this had anything to do with being hired to write this theme song, but it certainly couldn't have hurt.] Composers: music by Jerry Livingston (ASCAP), with lyrics by Mack David (ASCAP) and Max Meth (ASCAP) 1978 Publisher: M.
