Little Girl Blue lyrics

Sit there and count your fingers; what can you do ?

Old girl, you're through,

Sit there, count your little fingers,

Unhappy little girl blue.

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you,

It's time you knew

All you can ever count on are the raindrops

That fall on little girl blue.

Won't you just sit there ?

Count the little raindrops falling on you,

'Cause it's time you knew

All you can ever count on are the raindrops

That fall on little girl blue.

No use, old girl, you might as well surrender,

'Cause your hopes are getting slender and slender.

Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy

To cheer up little girl blue ?
