Love Me Tenderly - The Felice Brothers

I might lost my leg in the war

But war, it was love

My girl’s a real shark

I’m not gonna try to uh debate it, not everybodys

Perfect

My baby told me, «Darling if you can’t get a pardon,

Better get a parole»

I told her I’d be out by morning when the sun is down

And with the money rolled

Ooh we, that gal’s the gal for me

She loves me tenderly

I walked with my brand new slacks and my hair slick

Back down to Donny’s pier

Donny wants me to buy him a bottle but I blew my wallet

On a chandelier

All for my loving gal Eleanor who loves the elderly

A bottle of scotch

A dimesack and a diamond watch

Wouldn’t you like that

A bottle of gin

A typewriter and a violin

Wouldn’t you like that

Whoa!

James Felice on the piano.

Real talent.

Alright

Jimmy that’s enough let’s wrap it up.

Ooh we, that gal’s the gal for me

She loves me tenderly

I left my blue-eyed lady when we we toting a mercedes

Through the gambling man

I lost my diamond watch but in the parking lot I took

Back again

Oh man you’ve got to understand

She loves me tenderly

A bottle of scotch

A dimesack and a diamond watch

Wouldn’t you like that

A bottle of gin (what)

A typewriter and a violin

Wouldn’t you like that

A sunny day, a shotgun and a Chevrolet

Wouldn’t you like that

A painted scene, our voices on the city green

Wouldn’t you like that

A microwave, a pillbox and a jack of spades

Wouldn’t you like that
