Born to Sing is a 1942 American feature film directed by Edward Ludwig starring Virginia Weidler and Ray McDonald.

Frank Eastman is a down-on-his-luck show tune composer.

He wrote some music while in prison which was subsequently stolen by well-to-do show promoter Arthur Cartwright.

When the boys are arrested, they are placed in the same paddy wagon as gangster Pete Detroit.

The film made $298,000 in the US and Canada and $245,000 elsewhere, making MGM a loss of $138,000.
