How Could You Do A Thing Like That To Me?
Frank Sinatra · Concepts [2000]
Baby you went and broke your faithful, promise
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Didn't I give you everything, I'd promised
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Never thought - you'd be untrue, when my back - (it) was turned on you
If someone gave me all the world (the whole wide world), to hurt you
I wouldn't do a thing like that, to you
(No ma'am - I wouldn't (couldn't) do a thing like that, to you)
(So how could you do a thing like that, to me)
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Didn't I give you everything, I'd promised
How could you do a thing like that, to me
Never thought - you'd be untrue, when my back - (it) was turned on you
If someone gave me all the world (the whole wide world), to hurt you
I wouldn't do a thing like that, to you
(No ma'am - I wouldn't (couldn't) do a thing like that, to you)
(So how could you do a thing like that, to me)
