Billie Holiday - Lady Sings The Blues (1999) by Billie Holiday (보컬) on maniadb.com

It cost me a lot
But theres one thing that I've got
Its my man
Its my man

Cold or wet
Tired, you bet
All of this I'lll soon forget
With my man

He is not much on looks
He is no hero out of books
But I love him
Yes, I love him

Two or three girls has he
That he likes as well as me
But I love him

I dont know why I should
He isn't true
He beats me, too
What can I do?

Oh, my man, I love him so
He'll never know
All my life is just a spare
But I dont care
When he takes me in his arms
The world is bright
All right

What's the difference if I say
I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees someday

For whatever my man is
I'm his forevermore

Swing, Brother, Swing

(Bishop / Williams / Raymond)

Deep rhythm captivates me
Hot rhythms stimulate me
Can't help but swing it boy
Swing it brothers swing
Don't stop to diddle daddle
Stop this foolish prattle
Come on swing me boy
Swing it brothers swing
Raring to go and there aint nobody
Gonna hold me down
Say listen boy

Hurry up and send me
Let me go to town
Stop this diddle daddle
And this foolish prattle
Come on kill me boy
Swing it brothers swing

Deep rhythms captivate me
Hot rhythms stimulate me
Can't help but swing it boy
Swing it brothers swing
Don't stop to diddle daddle
Stop this foolish prattle
Come on send me Count
Swing it brothers swing
Rarin' to go and there aint nobody
Gonna hold me down
Say listen boy
Hurry up and send me
Let me go to town
Stop this diddle daddle
And this foolish prattle
Come on swing me Count
Swing it brothers swing

Hush now, don't explain
Just say you'll remain
I'm glad your back. don't explain

Quiet, don't explain
What is there to gain
Skip that lipstick
Don't explain

* You know that I love you
And what endures
All my thoughts of you
For I'm so completely yours

Cry to hear folks chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, don't matter
When you're with me, sweet

Hush now, don't explain
You're my joy and pain
My life's yours love
Don't explain *

I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

The night is cold and I'm so alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me
But no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream

I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me
Strange as it seems

Someday we'll meet
And you'll dry all my tears
Then whisper sweet
Little things in my ear
Hugging and a-kissing
Oh, what I've been missing
Lover man, oh, where can you be?

Never had nothing
No one to care
That's why I seem to have
More than my share
I've got a man crazy for me
He's funny that wayWhen I hurt his feelings
Once in a while
His only answer is one little smile
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that wayI can see no other way
And no better plan
End it all and let him go
To some better gal
But I'm only human
A coward at best
I'm more than certain
He'd follow me WestThough he loves to work
And slave for me everyday
He'd be so much better off
If I went away
But why should I leave him
Why should I go
He'd be unhappy without me I know
I've got that man crazy for me
He's funny that way

I fell in love with you first time I looked into

Them there eyes

And you have a certain lil' cute way of flirtin'

With them there eyes

They make me feel so happy

They make me feel so blue

I'm fallin'

No stallin'

In a great big way for you

My heart is jumpin'

You've started somethin

With them there eyes

You'de better look out little brown eyes
if you're wise

They sparkle

They bubble

They're gonna get

you in a whole lot of trouble

Oh baby them there eyes

You're overworkin' them

There's danger lurkin' in

Them there eyes



Maybe you think I'm just flirtin'

Maybe you think I'm all lies

Just because I get romantic when I gaze in

Them there eyes
