They're writing songs of love

But not for me

A lucky star's above

But not for me

With love to lead the way

I've found more clouds of gray

Than any Russian play

Could guarantee

I was a fool to fall

And get that way

Hi ho alas and also lackaday

Although I can't dismiss

The memory of his kiss

I guess he's not for me

He's knocking on a door but not for me

He'll plan a two by four but not for me

I know that love's a game;

I'm puzzled just the same

Was I the moth or flame

I'm all at sea

It all began so well but what an end

This is the time a feller needs a friend

When ev'ry happy plot ends with the marriage knot

And there's no knot for me
