Billie Holiday - "Baby, I Don't Cry over You" Lyrics
Artist: Billie Holiday
Album: Billie Holiday - The Complete Decca Sessions
Genre: Jazz
- Songwriters: Morton Krouse
Had my lunch all alone
Waited for you to phone
Said you'd call me at two
So about twenty of three
I had cocktails with Lee
Baby, I don't cry over you
Stood me up in the rain
Tried to hurt me again
Bet you thought I'd be blue
I went out to a show
With a swell guy named Joe
Baby, I don't cry over you
These foolish games you keep playing
Might work with somebody else
But I could have told you right from the start
No man is a man enough to break my heart
If you don't come tonight
Think you'll give me a fright
Tell you what I will do
I'll put on my best gown
And go painting this town
Baby, I don't cry over you
These foolish games you keep playing
Might work with somebody else
But I could have told you right from the start
No man is a man enough to break my heart
If you don't come tonight
Think you'll give me a fright
Tell you what I will do
I'll put on my best gown
And go painting this town
Baby, I don't cry over you
Listen Jack, you're sweet Jill
Will be out with some Bill
Baby I don't cry over you
In the Know
