Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me - Sy Oliver, Sammy Davis, Jr., Count Basie Orchestra

Someone told someone

And someone told you

I hope you don’t believe

What they say

Do nothin' till you hear from me

Pay no attention to what’s said

Why people tear the seam from anyone’s dream?

And it’s over my head

Do nothin' till you hear from me

At least consider our romance

If you take the word from others you heard

I haven’t a chance

But I’ve been seen with someone new

What does it mean?

And I’m untrue?

When we’re apart, the words in my heart

Reveal how I feel, I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory

And other arms may hold a thrill

But please, please do nothin', do nothin', babe

Oh, don’t do a thing till you hear, hear from me

You never will

And it’s true, babe, I’ve been seen with someone new

But what does it mean, I’m untrue?

When we’re apart, the words in my heart

Reveal how I feel about you

Some kiss may cloud my memory

And other arms may hold a thrill

But please do nothin'

Do nothin' till you hear from me

Oh baby, and you never will

Some kiss may cloud my memory

But please, please do nothin'

Please do nothin' till you hear from me

Do nothin', baby, no

Till you hear from me, don’t try
