Hello, this is Bing. The intro lyrics to Laverne and Shirley are:

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!
We're gonna do it!

Give us any chance - we'll take it
Read us any rule - we'll break it
We're gonna make our dreams come true
Doing it our way

Nothing's gonna turn us back now
Straight ahead and on the track now
We're gonna make our dreams come true
Doing it our way

There is nothing we won't try
Never heard the word impossible
This time there's no stopping us
We're gonna do it

On your mark, get set and go now
Got a dream and we just know now
We're gonna make our dream come true

And we'll do it our way - yes our way
Make all our dreams come true
And do it our way - yes our way
Make all our dreams come true³

The song is called “Making Our Dreams Come True” and was written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel. It was sung by Cyndi Grecco with The Ron Hicklin Singers¹².
