Riffin' the Scotch - Billie Holiday, Lester Young

Miscellaneous

RIFFIN' THE SCOTCH

Johnny Mercer / D. McDonough / Benny Goodman / Buck

I jumped out of the tryin' pan

And right into the fire

When I lost me a cheatin' man

And got a no-count liar

Swapped the old one for a new one

Now the new one’s breakin' my heart

I jumped out of the tryin' pan

And right into the fire

Lord, right into the fire
