Do Nothing 'Til You Hear from Me / I 'll Get By (with The All-Star 'Jam' Band)

Now presenting, our first vocal star of the evening
The incomparable, all-American, girl singer
Miss Billie Holiday

Do nothing 'til you hear from me
Pay no attention to what's said
Why people tear the seams of anyone's dreams
Is over my head

Do nothing 'til you hear from me
At least consider our romance
If you should take the word of others you've heard
I haven't a chance

True, I've been seen
With someone new
But does that mean
That I'm untrue?
When we're apart
The words in my heart
Reveal how I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But please, do nothing 'til you hear it from me
And you never will

True, I've been seen
With someone new
But does that mean
That I'm untrue?
When we're apart
The words in my heart
Reveal what I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory
And other arms may hold a thrill
But don't do nothing 'til you hear it from me
And you never will
Do nothing
'Til you hear from me

I'll get by
As long as I have you
Though there be rain
And darkness too
I'll not complain
I'll laugh it through

Poverty
May come to me
That's true
But what care I?
I'll get by
As long as I have you

I'll get by
As long as I have you
Though there be rain
And darkness too
I'll not complain
I'll laugh it through

Poverty
May come to me
That's true
But what care I
I'll get by
As long as I have you
