She's a Lady

She's a lady

And I chanced to meet her in my scufflin' days, she's a lady

Hypnotized me there that day

I came to play in my usual way, hey

Floating along with a whimsical twinkling in her strange green eyes

Linger with me, she said, "Yes," and, oh, the time did fly

She's a lady

Give her time, for she's allowed to change her mind, she's a lady

Happy to say she once was mine

Only sometimes I remember old times

And when she says, "Can you guess? It's a dress you won't believe

Would you come zip me up and button up my sleeve?"

Oh, lady, lady of ladies

I remember days that felt like it was raining daisies
