Текст песни Don'cha Go 'Way Mad - Ella Fitzgerald

I must confess what you say is true
I had a rendez-vous with somebody new
It's the only one I ever had (oh, yeah)
Baby, baby, don'cha go 'way mad

Cheatin' shows and it never goes
I got a reason to be mad, I suppose
Well, I guess I'm just a passing fad
Baby, baby, don'cha go 'way mad

Your kind's a dime a dozen
That's not the kind I want
Who could believe your cousin
Would be sittin' in that restaurant?

You realize that I'm real upset
What do you say that you forgive and forget?
Oughta shake you for a truer lad
Oh, baby, baby, don'cha go 'way mad

(Oh, honey, if you really wanna know the truth)
(She just happened to be sittin' at my table)
(Baby, baby, who are you kidding?)
(And furthermore, all I had on my mind was food)
(Well, if that's the case, how come you were sittin' holding hands across the table?)
(Holding hands, holding hands... I wasn't holding hands, I was just reaching for the cheque)
(Oh, honey, you know you never reached for a cheque in your whole life)

I guess that you got me better rights
I might have known that you were slipping 'round nights
I'll admit I really was a cad
Can you play me if I go away mad?

Cheatin' shows and it never goes
I would've stayed away forever, I suppose
But she only was a passing fad (oh yeah?)
Baby, baby, don'cha go 'way mad

That girl was just a phony
That chick had no finance
I know that's just below me
But I forgive you nonetheless

I'm sorry, dear, if I made you blue
All of my life I've been a fool for you
Come, kiss me just to show you're glad
Nothin' doin', 'cause I'm goin' 'way mad

You gotta forgive me
No, no, no, no
Oh, forgive me
Well, I'll think about it
Okay, baby, I won't go 'way mad
