Eddie Jefferson - Lady Be Good lyrics

Listen to my tale of woe It's terribly sad but true All dressed up, no place to go Each evening I'm awfully 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 awfully 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
