Miss Otis Regrets
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
(Madam)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
(Madam)
Sorry to be delayed
But last evening down at lover's lane, she strayed
Madam
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable
(Madam)
To lunch today
When she woke up and found
That her dream of love was gone
(Madam)
She ran, she ran to the man
Who had lead her astray
And from under her black velvet gown
She drew a gun and shot her lover down
Madam
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable, unable
Unable to lunch today
When the mob came and got her
And dragged her from the jail
They strung her up, up, up, up on the, oh
Willow across the way
And the moment before she died
She lifted her lovely head and cried
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Regrets
(Miss Otis regrets)
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable, she's unable
Unable, she's unable to lunch today
