Little Girl Blue 1927

Sit there and count your fingers,
what can you do?
Old girl you're through.
Sit there and count your little fingers,
Unlucky little girl blue.

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you.
It's time you knew,
all you can count on is the rain drops
that fall on Little girl blue.

No use, old girl,
you may as well surrender.
Your hope is getting slender.
Why won't somebody send a tender Blue Boy
to cheer a little girl blue?

When I was very young
the world was younger than I,
as merry as a carousel
The circus tent was strung
with ev'ry star in the sky above
the ring I loved so well.

Now the young world has grown old,
Gone are the tinsel and gold.

Sit there and count your fingers,
what can you do?
Old girl you're through.
Sit there and count your little fingers,
Unlucky little girl blue.

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you.
It's time you knew,
all you can count on is the rain drops
that fall on Little girl blue.
