Fats Waller
Lonesome for You (Black and Blue)
Cold empty bed (doo-wah)
Springs hard as lead (doo-wah)
Seemed like Old Ned (doo-wah)
Wish I was dead (doo)
All my life through
I've been so lonesome for you
And even the mouse (doo-wah)
He ran from the house (doo-wah)
Laughed at me, ooh (doo-wah)
He scorned me too (doo)
But what did I do
To be so lonesome for you?
Now I cry, oh, and I die
But that don't help my game
Now I've tried to-hoo-hoo hide
What it is in my frame, oh-ba-boo-doo-dee-boy-dley
How will it end? (doo-wah)
I ain't got a friend (doo-wah)
My only sin (doo-wah)
Is in your grin (doo)
But what did I do
To be so lonesome for you?
Cold empty bed
Springs hard as lead
Seemed like Old Ned
Oh, I wish I was dead
All my life through, love, love, lov, lov, low, low
I've been so, ba-bo-zee-ba-bo-zo
Oh, lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Oh, lonely lonely lonely lonely
And even the mouse
He ran from the house
And he laughed at me
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Oh, what did I do
To be so lonesome for
To be so lonesome for
To be so lonesome for
To be so lonesome for you?
