Sweet and lovely lady, be good
Oh, lady, be good to me
'Cause I'm so awfully misunderstood
Oh lady, oh lady, oh lady be good to me
Say I'm all alone in this big city of New York
Won't somebody please have pity
Pity pity pity on me
Just a lonesome babe in the wood
Oh lady, oh lady, oh lady be good to me
I lost my yellow basket
I'm just a lonesome babe in the wood
Oh lady, oh lady, lady be so good to me
