count basie – poor little rich girl lyrics
poor little rich girl
you’re a bewitched girl
better take care
laughing at danger
virtue a stranger
better beware!
the life you lead sets all your nerves a-jangle
you love affairs are in a hopeless tangle
though you’re a child, dear
your life’s a wild typhoon!
in lives of leisure
the craze for pleasure
steadily grows;
c-cktails and laughter
but what comes after?
n0body knows!
you’re weaving love into a mad jazz pattern
ruled by pantaloon
poor little rich girl
don’t drop a st-tch too soon!
you’re only a baby
you’re lonely, and maybe
someday soon you’ll know
the tears you are tasting
are years you are wasting
life’s a bitter foe!
with fate it’s no use competing
youth is so terribly fleeting;
by dancing much faster
you’re chancing disaster
time alone will show
poor little rich girl
you’re a bewitched girl
better take care
laughing at danger
virtue a stranger
better beware!
the life you lead sets all your nerves a-jangle
you love affairs are in a hopeless tangle
though you’re a child, dear
your life’s a wild typhoon!
in lives of leisure
the craze for pleasure
steadily grows;
c-cktails and laughter
but what comes after?
n0body knows!
you’re weaving love into a mad jazz pattern
ruled by pantaloon
poor little rich girl
don’t drop a st-tch too soon!
