Love Me Tenderly
I might lost my leg in the war
But war, it was love
My girl's a real shark
I'm not gonna try to debate it
Not everybody's perfect
My baby told me, "Darling
If you can't get a pardon, better get a parole"
I told her I'd be out by morning
When the sun is down and with the money rolled
Ooh-wee, that gal's the gal for me
She loves me tenderly
I walked with my brand new slacks
And my hair slick back down to Donny's pier
Donny wants me to buy him a bottle
But I blew my wallet on a chandelier
All for my loving gal Leonor
Who loves the elderly
A bottle of Scotch, a dime-sack and a diamond watch
Wouldn't you like that?
A bottle of gin, a typewriter and a violin
Wouldn't you like that?
Whoa! James Felice on the piano
Real talent, alright Jimmy that's enough let's wrap it up
Ooh-wee, that gal's the gal for me
She loves me tenderly
I left my blue-eyed lady
And went with Tony Mercedes to the gambling room
I lost my diamond watch
But in the parking lot I took back again
Oh, man, you got to understand
She loves me tenderly
A bottle of Scotch, a dime-sack and a diamond watch
Wouldn't you like that?
A bottle of gin, a typewriter and a violin
Wouldn't you like that?
A sunny day, a shotgun and a Chevrolet
Wouldn't you like that?
A painted scene, our voices on the city green
Wouldn't you like that?
A microwave, a pillbox and a jack of spades
Wouldn't you like that?
But war, it was love
My girl's a real shark
I'm not gonna try to debate it
Not everybody's perfect
My baby told me, "Darling
If you can't get a pardon, better get a parole"
I told her I'd be out by morning
When the sun is down and with the money rolled
Ooh-wee, that gal's the gal for me
She loves me tenderly
I walked with my brand new slacks
And my hair slick back down to Donny's pier
Donny wants me to buy him a bottle
But I blew my wallet on a chandelier
All for my loving gal Leonor
Who loves the elderly
A bottle of Scotch, a dime-sack and a diamond watch
Wouldn't you like that?
A bottle of gin, a typewriter and a violin
Wouldn't you like that?
Whoa! James Felice on the piano
Real talent, alright Jimmy that's enough let's wrap it up
Ooh-wee, that gal's the gal for me
She loves me tenderly
I left my blue-eyed lady
And went with Tony Mercedes to the gambling room
I lost my diamond watch
But in the parking lot I took back again
Oh, man, you got to understand
She loves me tenderly
A bottle of Scotch, a dime-sack and a diamond watch
Wouldn't you like that?
A bottle of gin, a typewriter and a violin
Wouldn't you like that?
A sunny day, a shotgun and a Chevrolet
Wouldn't you like that?
A painted scene, our voices on the city green
Wouldn't you like that?
A microwave, a pillbox and a jack of spades
Wouldn't you like that?
