Little Girl Blue

Sit there and count your fingers

What can you do?

Oh girl you're through

Sit there and count your little fingers

Unlucky little girl blue



Sit there and count the raindrops

Falling on you

It's time you knew

All you can count on are the raindrops

That fall on little girl blue



No use oh girl

You may as well surrender

Your hope is getting slender

Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy

To cheer little girl blue



When I was very young

The world was younger than I

As merry as a carousel



The circus tent was strong

With every star in the sky

Above the ring I loved so well



Now the young world has grown quite old

It's all gone the tinsle and gold





Sit there and count the raindrops

Falling on you

It's about time you knew

That all you can count on are just the raindrops

And just those that fall on little girl blue



No use oh girl

You may as well surrender

Your hope is getting slender

Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy

To cheer little girl blue
