Lookin' Good but Feelin' Bad Songtext

von Fats Waller

How'd'ya like a mansion in Manhattan
And a cosy cottage by the sea?
How'd'ya like to dress in silk and satin?
Baby, have a little dream on me

How'd you like to mingle with the smart set
And invite the Vanderbilts to tea?
Everything on which you've got your heart set
Baby, have a little dream on me

Paris in the Spring, Miami in the Fall
Interviews and pictures in the press
What a way to speak on twenty bucks a week
Don't forget that Rockefeller started out on less

Everything we touch will turn to clover
In the magic land of what's to be
But until your baby puts it over
Baby, have a little dream on me

Yes
Well, all right then

Everything we touch will turn to clover
In the magic land of what's to be
Till your daddy puts it over, skip it
Baby, have a dream on me, yes
