Mel Tormé - The Duke Ellington And Count Basie Songbooks

Just A Sittin' And A Rockin'

Sittin' all day without holding my baby
Makes me so blue and sad

I don't go out walking
I ain't for no talking
My baby's done left me
Just a sittin' and a rockin'

If I had been scheming
Instead of just dreaming
He'd never have left me
Just a sittin' and a rockin'

Sittin' all day without holding 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 her
I hope you'll remind her
That I'm staying where he left me
Just a sittin' and a rockin' all day

Sittin' all day without holding my baby
Makes me so blue and sad
If she don't hurry and come back
I'm a cinch to, I'll blow my top

I don't know why I'm talking
And I don't know why I'm walking
Just a sittin' and a rockin' all day
