Something Cool

Something Cool - Julie London

Something cool

Something cool

Something cool

I'd like to order something cool

Something cool

I'd like to order something cool

It's so warm here in town

And this heat gets me down

Yes I'd like something cool

My it's nice

To simply sit and rest awhile

Now I know it's a shame

I can't think of your name

I remember your smile

I don't ordinarily drink

With strangers

I most usually drink alone

You were so awfully nice to ask me

And I'm so terribly far from home

Like my dress

I must confess

It's very old

But it's simple and neat

It's just right for this heat

Save my furs for the cold

A cigarette

Well I don't smoke them

As a rule

But I'll have one it might be fun

With something cool

I'll bet you couldn't imagine

That I one time had a house

With so many rooms

I couldn't count them all

I bet you wouldn't imagine

I had fifteen different beaus

Who would beg

And beg to take me to a ball

I bet you couldn't picture me

The time I went to Paris in the fall

And who would think the man I loved

Was quite so handsome and quite so tall

Well it's through

It's just a memory I had

One I almost forgot

'Cause the weather's so hot

I'm feeling so bad

About a date

Wait I'm such a fool

He's just a guy who stopped to buy me

Something cool
