Select language to translate this lyric
See that girl with the swinging hips,
Midnight hair and ruby lips
Just one look in her emerald eyes, And you might as well say goodbye
Don't throw your life down a wishing well
Don't give your heart, to jezebel
The only man who ever called me darling
He was taken by that little harlet
His tender heart was led to sin
And I'll never love that way again
Don't throw your life down a wishing well
Don't give your heart to jezebel
Oh she once was a friend of mine
But then I found a love so fine, so fine
The band played that waltz from Tennessee
And she danced him right away from me
(instrum. Refrain)
Now late at night I tend this bar
Serving hard remedies for broken hearts
The love I lost now waits in vain
For that jezebel to call his name
He got to thinking, just like you
That he could be her only fool
Please don't you go and be so dumb
To think that you're her only, only only, only only one
Don't throw your life down a wishing well
Don't give your heart, to jezebel
Don't give your heart, to jezebel
