Duke Ellington Lyrics for Song: Lady Be Good
 Lyrics for Album: Capitol Sessions 1953-55 [2006]
 
 
 
 39122>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.
