James P. Johnson / Flournoy E. Miller 



Don't lose your head

Then lose your guy

You can't lose a broken heart



If you ever break up

Then try to make up

It's tough to make a brand new start



Take a walk

Think it over

While strolling neath the moon

Don't say things in December

You'll regret in June



Ware your remark

Before you speak

Or you may be sorry soon,

Don't be eratic

Be diplomatic

To keep your heart's in tune



Cruel harsh words

Often spoken

Will upset your applecart

So don't lose your head

Then lose your guy

Cus, you can't lose a broken heart

No, you can't lose a broken heart!
