But Not For Me Lyrics - The Swingin' Miss - Dinah Washington

Old man sunshine, listen you 

Never tell me dreams come true 

Just try it and I'll start a riot 

Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare 

Ever tell me he will care 

I'm certain, it's the final curtain 

I never want to hear 

From any cheerful Polly Annas 

Who tells you fate supplies a mate 

It's all bananas 

They're writing songs of love but not for me 

A lucky stars above but not for me 

With love to lead the way 

I've found more clouds of gray 

Than any Russian play could guarantee 

I was a fool to fall and get that way 

Ah, ho, alas and awe so lackaday 

Although I can't dismiss 

The memory of his kiss 

I guess he never had eyes for me 

I was a fool to fall and get that way 

Ah ho alas and awe so lackaday 

Although I can't dismiss 

The memory of his kiss 

I guess, yes, he's not for me
