fred astaire - the half of it, dearie, blues lyrics

each time you trill a song with bill or look at will
i get a chill, i’m gloomy
i won’t recall the names of all the men who fall
it’s all appalling to me
of course, i really cannot blame them a bit
for you’re a hit where’re you flit
i know it’s so, but dearie, oh!
you’ll never know the blues that go right through me
i’ve got the you-don’t-know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues
the trouble is you have so many from whom to choose
if you should marry tom, d-ck, or harry
life would be the bunk, i’d become a monk
i’ve got the you-don’t know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues!

to bill and ben i’d pay attention now and then
but really men would bore me
when i’d begun to think i’d run and be a nun
i met the one man for me
and now just when the sun is starting to beam
along comes a girl, zip goes a dream!
what will i do away from you?
i feel the future will be blue and stormy
i’ve got the you-don’t-know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues
it may be my heart isn’t broken, but there’s a bruise
through you i’ve known some days that were lonesome
though you say that i’m flirting all the time
i’ve got the you-don-t know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues!

i’ve got the you-don’t-know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues
oh, how i wish you’d drop an anchor and end your cruise
you’re just a duffer who makes me suffer
all the younger set says your heart’s to let
i’ve got the you-don’t-know-the-half-of-it-dearie blues!
