the gentleman is a dope - jo stafford lyrics
[verse 1]
the gentleman is a dope
a man of many faults
a clumsy joe who wouldn’t know
a rumba from a waltz
the gentleman is a dope
and not my cup of tea
why do i get in a dither?
he doesn’t belong to me
[verse 2]
the gentleman isn’t bright
he doesn’t know the score
a cake will come, he’ll take a crumb
and never ask for more
the gentleman’s eyes are blue
but little do they see
why am i beatin’ my brains out?
he doesn’t bеlong to me
[bridge]
he’s somebody еlse’s problem
she’s welcome to the guy
she’ll never understand him
half as well as i
[verse 3]
the gentleman is a dope
he isn’t very smart
he’s just a lug you’d like to hug
and hold against your heart
the gentleman doesn’t know
how happy he could be
but look at me cryin’ my eyes out
as if he belonged to me
he’ll never belong to me
[instrumental break]
[outro]
the gentleman doesn’t know
how happy he could be
but look at me cryin’ my eyes out
as if he belonged to me
he’ll never ever
he’ll never belong to me
