Theme Song
While the weekly show began with an instrumental theme song by the team of Sammy Cahn and James Van Heusen, the closing credits during the first eight shows of the inaugural season played the song with lyrics sung by The Modernaires:
- Who's the gal that's everybody's pal, it's Hazel
- She's the one to make the sun begin to glow
- The mailman, the grocer, and even schoolkids know
- It's worth their while to stop and watch that smile
- When Hazel, that Hazel
- When Hazel, that Hazel
- When Hazel says hello
There were different arrangements of the theme song as the series progressed, including a later version by Howard Greenfield and Helen Miller.

“She is a theme of honor and renown,
A spur to valiant and magnanimous deeds,
Whose present courage may beat down our foes,
And fame in time to come canonize us.”

“I could take the Harlem night
and wrap around you,
Take the neon lights and make a crown,
Take the Lenox Avenue buses,
Taxis, subways,
And for your love song tone their rumble down.”
