Artist/Band: Louis Armstrong
Lyrics for Song: I Still Get Jealous
Lyrics for Album: Complete Collection [2007]



Dear Dolly



I still get jealous



When they look at you



I may not show it, but I do



It's more than I can bear



When they start to stare



'Cause they think



You're too good to be true



I still get jealous



When we kiss goodnight



Unless you hold me



Extra tight



And dear, I know a secret



You didn't know I knew



I still get jealous



'Cause it pleases you



And dear, I know a secret



You didn't know I knew



I still get jealous



'Cause it pleases you



Mama and Dolly, I know a secret



You didn't know, I knew



I still get jealous, honey



Very jealous



I still get jealous



'Cause it pleases you


I Still Get Jealous

Louis Armstrong's 'I Still Get Jealous' stands as a testament to his enduring mastery of the blues and vocal jazz. Recorded during a period where his distinctive gravelly tone defined an era, the track showcases his ability to imbue standard material with profound emotional depth. As a central figure in jazz history, Armstrong transformed popular songs into personal narratives, balancing technical precision with raw feeling. This recording reflects the broader scope of his discography, which spans from early New Orleans polyphony to later balladry. The song remains a vital song in his catalogue, illustrating how his phrasing and improvisational instincts could elevate a simple melody into a timeless expression of human sentiment.
