Ella Fitzgerald - Oh! Lady Be Good

Listen to my tale of woe, it's terribly sad but true
All dressed up, no place to go
Each evening I'm awfully blue
I must win some winsome miss

Can't go on like this
I could blossom out I know
Which somebody just like you so

Oh sweet and lovely
Lady be good
Oh lady be good to me
I am so awfully misunderstood
So lady be good, to me
Oh, please have some pity
I'm all alone in this big city
I tell you I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood
So lady be good to me

Auburn and brunette and blonde
I love 'em all, tall or small
But somehow they don't' grow fond
They stagger but never fall
Winter's gone, and now it's spring
Love where is thy sting
If somebody won't respond
I'm going to end it all
So

Oh sweet and lovely lady, be good
Oh lady, be good to me
I am so awfully misunderstood
So, lady be good to me
This is tulip weather
So let's put two and two together
I tell you
I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood
So, lady be good, to me
Listen to my tale of woe, it's terribly sad but true
All dressed up, no place to go
Each evening I'm awfully blue
I must win some winsome miss

Can't go on like this
I could blossom out I know
Which somebody just like you so

Oh sweet and lovely
Lady be good
Oh lady be good to me
I am so awfully misunderstood
So lady be good, to me
Oh, please have some pity
I'm all alone in this big city
I tell you I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood
So lady be good to me

Auburn and brunette and blonde
I love 'em all, tall or small
But somehow they don't' grow fond
They stagger but never fall
Winter's gone, and now it's spring
Love where is thy sting
If somebody won't respond
I'm going to end it all
So

Oh sweet and lovely lady, be good
Oh lady, be good to me
I am so awfully misunderstood
So, lady be good to me
This is tulip weather
So let's put two and two together
I tell you
I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood
So, lady be good, to me
