She said it and she meant it too. I never knew a thing she said to be untrue. She told me that she never had a man. To feel her like I do. . I love her and she loves me too.
My baby's gone, won't be back no more. She won't be back no more. My baby's gone, she won't be back no more. She left this mornin', she caught that Seminole.
I got a letter, this is the way it read. I got a letter, this is the way it read. It says, hurry home Tampa the gal you love is dead. . I went to the station but that southbound train had gone.
When you're out for a lovely evening. Forget about your daily blues. And rock it in rhythm, everybody's singin'. . When old man gloom is at you. I tell you just what to do.
You ain't the gal you used to be. I wouldn't mind being a beggar. You used to mean so much to me. I'll slave for you. . You had me blind but now I see.
I'm goin' away, baby. But maybe not to stay. But I won't be back. Until you change your way. . You keep me. Nutty and buggy all the time. I won't be back, baby.
When you see me in a hurry. I am busy don't you worry. Getting a place to break 'em down. My Za Zu gal's in town. . Everything is hunky-dory. As a moving picture story.
No one to love me, no one to care. It's mighty hard for me to bear. This seems to be my last affair. My gal is gone. . Just as sure as the sun. Shine up in the skies above.
It's hard to believe we are through, dear. Still you keep a-sayin' it ain't so. Maybe because I need you. Much more than you know. . I'm sorry to see you go and leave me.
I'm so disappointed, baby in you. For I once thought your little heart was true. But when I asked you for love you failed to give me bliss. But darling, we can't go on like this.
I'm gonna get high. And it ain't no lie. And swing alone and have a ball. I'm gonna get high. . Oh me, oh my. Nobody know why. Oh my baby don't you cry.
I been down and I ain't through. I see you can't take it. Tryin' to love and baby, you. I see you can't take it. . I can tell at a glance. By the way you kiss and then.
Although it seems that we must part. You will forever be in my heart. Though I shall never think of. Why we had to start, we had to start. . And though you say, now.
Befo' I say goodnight my love to you. Promise dear, you'll make my dream come true. Remember dear, my heart, I trust to you. And don't forget the plans I made for two.
Yeah man, make a plan. Everybody, let's get started. Get that Harlem swing. . Every man, in the band. Let's get busy, the gang's all dizzy. With that Harlem swing.
We are so happily married. We gave up all for love. And now we are free. . It's so heavenly. We wish everyone to know. It's robins and roses. Whever we go, oh, oh, ooh, oh.
Meet me down in the bottom. Mama, bring my shoes and clothes. Meet me down in the bottom. Mama, bring my shoes and clothes. I ain't got very many. But I got so far to go.
I'm goin' back to the delta. That's where I belong. I'm goin' back to the delta. That's where I belong. . If old bad luck and trouble. Don't keep me far to long.
When this world is so crooked. I just don't know what to do. When this world is so crooked. I just don't know what to do. . And if you try to hold up yo' hands.
No matter what you say, baby. No matter what you do. The way you treat me baby. Is coming back home to you. . And crying won't help you. Crying won't help you.
