Etta Jones - Doin' What She Does Best

I'm Gonna Lock My Heart And Throw Away The Key

I'm gonna lock my heart, throw away the key
I'm wise to the tricks you've played on me
Gonna turn my back on love, gonna snub the moon above
Seal all my windows up with tin, so the love bug can't get in

I'm gonna park my romance right along the curb
Hang a sign upon my heart, 'Please don't disturb'
And if I never fall in love again that's soon enough for me
Gonna lock my heart and throw the key

I'm gonna lock my heart, throw away the key
I'm wise to those tricks you've played on me
Gonna turn my back on love, gonna snub the moon above
Seal all my windows up with tin, so the love bug can't get in

Gonna park my romance right along the curb
Hang a sign upon my heart, 'Please don't disturb'
And if I never fall in love again that's soon enough for me
I'm gonna lock my heart, never fall in love
Gonna lock my heart and throw the key
