I Guess I'll Have to Change My Plans - Count Basie

I guess I’ll have to change my plan

I should have realized there’d be another man

I overlooked that point completely

Until the big affair began

Before I knew where I was at I found myself upon the shelf and that was that

I tried to reach the moon but when I got there

All that I could get was the air

My feet are back upon the ground

I lost the one girl I’d found

Before I knew where I was at I found myself upon the shelf and that was that

I tried to reach the moon but when I got there

All that I could get was the air

My feet are back upon the ground

I lost the one girl

The one girl I’d found

My boiling point is much too low

For me to try to be a fly Lothario
