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
