Anita O`Day

Peel me a grape, crush me some ice
Skin me a peach, save the fuzz for my pillow
Start me a smoke, talk to me nice
You got to wine me and dine me

Don't try and train me, chow mein me
Best way to serve me, hors d'oeuvre me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Pop me a cork, French me a fry
Crack me a nut, bring a bowl fulla bon-bons
Chill me some wine, keep standing by
Just entertain me, champagne me

Best way to cheer me, cashmere me
Best way to smell me, Chanel me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Here's how to be an agreeable chap
Love me and leave me in luxury's lap
Hop when I holler, skip when I snap
When I say 'do it,' jump to it

Send out for Scotch, call me a cab
Cut me a rose, make my tea with the petals
Just hang around, pick up the tab
Never outthink me, just mink me

Polar bear rug me, don't bug me
New Thunderbird me, you heard me
I'm getting hungry, peel me a grape

Now you are singing with a real good swing
Now you are singing with a real good swing! Yeah!!

Sing low, sing clear
Sweet words in my ear
Not a whisper of despair
But love's own prayer

Sing on, until
You bring back the thrill
Of a sentimental tune
That died too soon

Our harmony was lost
But you forgave, I forgot
Whisper not of quarrels past
You know we've had our last

So now, we'll be
On key constantly
Love will whisper on eternally

Why did we listen when they said it wouldn't last
Gossiping voices made us break up, but you know we still can make up
If we forget 'em all, and answer Cupid's call
It's the truth!

Whispers of troubles are an echo of the past
All it will take to lose my gloom is just a whisper not of rumours
But of your love for me
That's how it's got to be

Oh, don't the moon look lonesome shinin' thru the trees?
Oh don't the moon look lonesome shinin' thru the trees?
Don't your arms look lonesome when your baby back's up to leave?

Well i'm goin' up on the mountain to call that baby of mine
Said i'm goin' up on the mountain to call that baby of mine
But something tells me he's not coming back this time


We would like to go to the country-- baby can't take you
I'm goin' up to the country -- baby can't take you
There's nothin' up there a man like you could do

He's got a face like a fish
Shape like a frog
When he loves me I holler uuuuuh-uhhh, hot dog

I love that man better than I do myself
I love that man better than I do myself
But i'm all alone, all alone on the shelf, on the shelf

Fly me to the moon
And let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling kiss me

Fill my heart with song
Let me sing forever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you

I've got a soap dish but ain't got no soap
I've got a hope chest but I ain't got no hope
I've got a moustrap - no mouse
I've got a household a - no house
I've got a the no soap, no hope, no mouse, no house blues

I've got a floor mat but i aint' got no floor
I've got a doorknob but I ain't got no door
I've got a teapot - no tea
I've got a keyhole - no key
I've got the no floor, no door, no tea, no key blues

Oh I've got a right to cry and do I cry, why yes indeed
'Cause I haven't got a lot at home, I've got I sure don't need

I've got a soap dish but ain't got no soap
I've got a hope chest but I ain't got no hope
I've got a moustrap - no mouse
I've got a household a - no house
I've got a the no soap, no hope, no mouse, no house Blues

I've got the blues

Oh I've got a right to cry and do I cry, why yes indeed
'Cause I haven't got a lot at home, I've got I sure don't need

I've got a soap dish but ain't got no soap
I've got a hope chest but I ain't got no hope
I've got a moustrap - no mouse
I've got a household a - no house
I've got a the no soap, no hope, no mouse, no house,
no floor, no door, no tea, no key blues

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Well, the way you're acting lately, well it makes me doubt
You were still my baby, baby
But it seems like my flame in your heart, well it's just gone out

A man is a creature
That has always been strange
Just when you're sure of one
You'll find that he's gone and made a change

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Well, maybye my baby found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby too
