Just A-Sittin' and A-Rockin' - Live (7/28/64-Cote D'Azur)
Merci beaucoup
Pressure!
I know I should go out
Be seen here and there
But my friends have found out
My baby don't care
I don't go out walkin'
And I ain't for no talkin'
'Cause my baby has left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'
If I had been schemin'
Instead of just dreamin'
He'd never have left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'
Sittin' all day without holdin' my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If he don't hurry and come back
It's a cinch to drive me mad
Now, if I don't find him
I hope you'll remind him
That I'm sittin' where he left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin' all day
Roy Eldridge!
Play pretty for the people, Roy
Sittin' all day without holdin' my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If he don't hurry and come back
It's a cinch to drive me mad
I said, drive me mad
Now, if I don't find him
I hope you'll remind him
That I'm sittin' where he left me
Just a-sittin'
And a-rockin'
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin' all day
Pressure!
I know I should go out
Be seen here and there
But my friends have found out
My baby don't care
I don't go out walkin'
And I ain't for no talkin'
'Cause my baby has left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'
If I had been schemin'
Instead of just dreamin'
He'd never have left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin'
Sittin' all day without holdin' my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If he don't hurry and come back
It's a cinch to drive me mad
Now, if I don't find him
I hope you'll remind him
That I'm sittin' where he left me
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin' all day
Roy Eldridge!
Play pretty for the people, Roy
Sittin' all day without holdin' my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If he don't hurry and come back
It's a cinch to drive me mad
I said, drive me mad
Now, if I don't find him
I hope you'll remind him
That I'm sittin' where he left me
Just a-sittin'
And a-rockin'
Just a-sittin' and a-rockin' all day
