Your rating:
Each time you trill a song with Bill or look at Will I get a chill, I'm gloomy I won't recall the names of all the men who fall It's all appalling to me Of course, I really cannot blame them a bit For you're a hit where're you flit I know it's so, but dearie, oh You'll never know the blues that go right through me I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues The trouble is you have so many from whom to choose If you should marry Tom, Dick, or harry Life would be the bunk, I'd become a monk I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues To Bill and Ben, I'd pay attention now and then But really men would bore me When I'd begun to think I'd run and be a nun I met the one man for me And now just when the sun is starting to beam Along comes a girl, zip goes a dream What will I do away from you? I feel the future will be blue and stormy I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues It may be my heart isn't broken, but there's a bruise Through you I've known some days that were lonesome Though you say that I'm flirting all the time I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues Oh, how I wish you'd drop an anchor and end your cruise You're just a duffer who makes me suffer All the younger set says your heart's to let I've got the, you don't know the half of it dearie blues
