Listen to my tale of woe,
it's certainly sad, but true.
I'm all dressed up, and no place to go,
This ev'ning I'm awefuly blue.
I must wed some winsome miss,
can't go on like this.
I could blossom out I know
with somebody just like you.
Oh, cute and lovely,
lady be good.
Oh, lady be good to me.
I am so awefuly
misunderstood.
Oh, lady be good
to me.
Oh, please have some pity!
I'm all alone in this big city.
I'm just a lonesome babe in the woods.
Oh, lady be good to me.
