Was That The Human Thing To Do

Was That The Human Thing To Do - The Boswell Sisters

Never thought that anyone in their right mind

Could ever treat another human so unkind

Didn't you leave a note way behind

Was that the human thing to do

Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold

But after I was sold on all the tales you told

Didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold

Was that the human thing to do

I'm not trying to patch things up

What's been done must be

Lord I wouldn't even treat a pup

The way you treated me

How can anybody be so darn unfair

You let me hang around until I learned to care

Didn't you even laugh and leave me crying there

Was that the human thing to do

Never thought that anyone in their right mind

Could ever treat another human so unkind

Didn't you sneak away and leave a note behind

Was that the human thing to do

Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold

But after I was sold on all the tales you told

Didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold

Was that the human thing to do

I just wanna be understood

Was that the human thing to do

Was that the human thing to do
