Lyrics If I Were You - Billie Holiday, Babe Russin, Claude Thornhill

If I Were You

If I were you
Here’s what I’d do
I’d give my heart a break
Instead of trying to break my heart
It I were you
I’d do this too
I’d string along with me instead of keepin' me on a string
I’d love me the whole day long
You’d never catch me nappin'
Wouldn’t have a change of heart
Not for fear
That such a thing should happen
It I were you
Here’s what I’d do
I’d stick to me My whole life through
It I were you
