Paroles de 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 awfully blue



I know I'm a winsome miss / I must win some handsome guy

Can't go on like this,

I could blossom out I know,

With somebody just like you. So...



Chorus :



Oh, sweet and lovely lady, be good
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.

(bis)



Oh lady be good to me.
