Oh! Lady Be Good! |
| Listen to my tale of woe, |
| it’s terribly sad but true, |
| All dressed up, no place to go |
| Each ev’ning I’m awf’ly blue. |
| I must win some handsome guy |
| Can’t go on like this, |
| I could blossom out I know, |
| With somebody just like you. |
| So |
| Oh, sweet and lovely lady, be good |
| Oh, lady, be good to me |
| I am so awf’ly 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. |
| 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. |
| Oh 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. |
| Winte’rs gone, and now it’s spring! |

| I’m going to end it all. |
