Duke Ellington
Do Nothin’ Till You Hear from Me
[Verse 1]
Do nothin' 'til you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seams of anyone's dreams
Is over my head
Do nothin' 'til you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the words of others you've heard
I haven't a chance
[Bridge]
True, I've been seen with someone new
That doesn't mean I've been untrue
Though we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
[Verse 2]
Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothin' 'til you hear it from me
And you never will
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
True, I've been seen with someone new
That don't mean I've been untrue
While we're apart, the words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you
[Outro]
Some kiss me, cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please do nothin' 'til you hear it from me
Please do nothin' 'til you hear it from me
Please do nothin' 'til you hear it from me
Baby, you never will, oh, oh
That's the truth, you'll never know
And don't tell your mama
