But Not for Me

But Not For Me - Sammy Davis Jr.

Old Man Sunshine, listen, you,

Never tell me dreams come true,

Just try it, and I'll start a riot,

Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare,

Ever tell me she will care,

I'm certain, It's like the final cutain.

Don't want to hear from and cheerful Pollyannas,

Who tell you fade, it's all bananas.

They're writing songs of love, but not for me,

A lucky star's shining above, but not for me,

With love to lead the way,

I found more clouds of grey,

Than any one of those Russian play could guarantee.

I was a fool to fall, and get that way,

Hi ho! Alas! And also Lack a day!

Although I can't dismiss,

The memory of her kiss,

I guess that girl is not for me.

I was a fool to fall, and get that way,

Hi ho! Alas! And also Lack a day!

Although I can't dismiss,

The memory of her kiss,

I guess she's not she's not for me.

She's not for me
