Sentimental Institution |
| I’ll tell you a story |
| About a girl who came my way |
| We upped and married |
| Three kids, a dog in Sante Fe Now she’s gone I’m by myself |
| I’m gonna join |
| A sentimental institution |
| I’m gonna pack |
| Pack all my little old blues away |
| But I didn’t stay left on the shelf |
| Mrs. Johnson from Wisconsin |
| She’s a widow, plain to see |
| And Minnesota from Dakota |
| Likes the way I make her tea |
| Sweet as candy |
| I’m gonna join |
| A sentimental institution |
| With no-one to stop me From playing Benny Goodman all day |
| So if you want romance |
| Just step my way |
| The band starts to play |
| I can thrill her |
| With Glenn Miller |
| Or a song from |
| Louis Armstrong |
| With Jim Dorsey |
| Or Arty Shaw, we Know this magic can’t go wrong |
| Old and lovely |
| She’s so wealthy |
| But so ugly |
| I’ve gone crazy |
| Someone help me do |
