Was That The Human Thing To Do? - 1931

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 01 Nov 2001

To err is human,
I heard you say,
Forgiveness is divine;
but all the sweet things you may say,
can't mend this heart of mine.

Never thought that anyone in their right mind
could ever treat another human so unkind;
didn't you sneak away and leave a note behind,
was that the human thing to do?
Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold,
but after I was sold on all the tales you told,
didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold,
was that the human thing to do?
Now I'm not trying to patch things up,
what's been done, must be,
Lord! I wouldn't even treat a pup
the way you treated me.
How could anybody be so darn unfair,
you let me hang around until I learned to care,
didn't you even laugh
and leave me crying there,
was that the human thing to do?

Never thought that anyone in their right mind
could ever treat another human so unkind;
didn't you sneak away and leave a note behind,
was that the human thing to do?
Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold,
but after I was sold on all the tales you told,
didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold,
was that the human thing to do?
Now I just wanna be understood,
I'm no false alarm,
If I couldn't do a human good,
I wouldn't do 'em harm.
How you let me fall and how you let me be,
and when I begg'd you for a little sympathy,
didn't you ever try to hi de hi de me,
was that the human thing to do?
