Where Did Everyone Go?

Where Did Everyone Go? - Nat King Cole

It wasn't my intention to eavesdrop

But there a guy sat two stools away

And you could tell the bartender knew him

And that he'd been there some other day

And while I sipped my libation

I overheard his conversation

Remember how I'd walk in

What excitement there would be

Never less than twenty people

I had lots of friends you see

I gave the party I was the host

Everyone loved me

I was the most

Champagne and plenty of it

Real imported caviar

And the hat check girl got fifty

Just for lighting my cigar

I kept 'em laughin' jokes by the yard

Everyone loved me

I was a card

And I had a girl

A beautiful girl

Her whole world I think consisted of mink

And diamonds and pearls

Because she was mine

I'd glitter and shine

And life was a ball and wasn't it all

So cozy in fine

But nothing lasts forever

And the deepest well runs dry

Just 'cause I've stopped rolling sevens

Doesn't mean I have to cry

I'll take that nightcap

One more won't show

And incidentally

Maybe you know

Where oh where oh where

Did everyone go

Where oh where oh where

Did everyone go
