In 1936 they moved to Dillard University in New Orleans, where they worked under Frederick Hall[disambiguation needed] under the names New Orleans Quintet and Frederick Hall Quintet.

Stars shining bright above you. 
Night breezes seem to whisper, 'I love you,' 
Birds singing in the sycamore tree. 
Dream a little dream of me. 

Say nighty-night and kiss me. 
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me. 
While I'm alone and blue as can be, 
Dream a little dream of me. 

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear, 
Still craving your kiss. 
I'm longing to linger 'till dawn, dear, 
Just saying this: 

Sweet dreams 'till sunbeams find you, 
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you. 
But in your dreams, whatever they be. 
Dream a little dream of me.

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear, 
Still craving your kiss. 
I'm longing to linger 'till dawn, dear, 
Just saying this: 

Sweet dreams 'till sunbeams find you, 
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you. 
But in your dreams, whatever they be. 
You gotta make me a promise, promise to me
Dream a little dream of me.
