| 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.

| 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 winsome miss
|
| Can’t go on like this,
|
| I could blossom out I know,
|
| Which somebody just like you.
|

|
| Oh sweet and lovely,
|
| Lady be good,
|
| Oh lady be good to me.

| 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.
|
| Winte’rs 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 |
