"The Half of It, Dearie" Blues Lyrics

Mmmm [Scat]

I've got the "You don't know the half of it, dearie" blues
Oh how I wish you'd drop that anger, and end your cruise
You're just a duffer, who makes me suffer
All the younger set, says your heart's to let
I've got the "You don't know the half of it, dearie" blues
Mmmm [Scat]
[Instrumental bridge]

I've got the "You don't know the half of it, dearie" blues
Although I know that love's a gamble, I hate to lose
Life will be duller, we'll have no color
Jill without a Jack, makes the future black
I've got the "You don't know the half of it, dearie" blues

Mmmm [Scat]

I've got the "You don't know the half of it, dearie" blues
