The Lady In Red Songtext
von Anita O’Day

The lady in red

Say, have you ever met the girl who′s the toast of the town?
A work of art without a question
Who gives your heart a quick ingestion

Say, have you ever met the dream in the red velvet gown?
If you will pardon my suggestion
You'd better write her number down
A gay young bird on the magazine′s feature
Upon my words, she's the heaviest creature
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


She's the Valentine all the movies are after
She won′t sign ′cause you really don't help so well
I declare she′s the lady in red, fellas are crazy for the lady in red
She's a bit gothic, but lovely, what a personality
Oh, the lady in red crashes a daisy when the time is in there
She′s dancing, and dining, and shining with originality

She's very proper, but she′s nothing more than a pal, my, oh me, oh my
Ever stubborn, she'd be a dangerous girl if she should ever meet the right guy
The lady in red, fellas are crazy for the lady in red
Is she a stunning whole body, what a personality

She's very proper, but she′s nothing more than a pal my, oh me, oh my
Ever stubborn, she′d be a dangerous girl if she should ever meet the right guy
The lady in red, fellas are crazy for the lady in red
Is she a stunning body, what a glamourality
Sensationality
Honestly, she's the greatest thing I ever saw
Talking about the lady, oh, the lady in red
