All God's Chillun Got Rhythm

Listen to my tale of woe

It's terribly sad but true

All dressed up no place to go

Each evening I'm awfully blue

I must win some handsome guy

Can't go on like this

I could blossom out I know

With somebody just like you

So

Oh sweet and lovely lady be good

Oh lady be good to me

I am so awfully misunderstood

So lady be good to me

Oh please have some pity

I'm all-alone in this big city

I tell you I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood

So lady be good to me

Oh please have some pity

I'm all alone in this big city

I tell you I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood

So lady be good to me

Oh lady be good to me
