Lyrics

There’s an old lady loves to play the blues.
There’s an old lady loves to play the blues.
When she plays for you honey,
She thrills you right down to your shoes!

Chorus: Her hair is white!
She’s got age spots on her skin!
Her eyes are bright!
She’s got whiskers on her chin!
She’s out all night!
Singin’ and playin’ !
She’s in love with the blues,
And look at the fun she’s havin’!

Lovely old lady, will you play with me?
Lovely old lady, will you play with me?
“You bet I will, sonny ,
We’ll play till half past three.”

Chorus / Piano Interlude

Her hair is white!
She’s got whiskers on her chin.
Her dress is tight
And she shows a little skin.
She’s out all night
Singin’ and playin’
She’s in love with the blues...Yeah!
And look at the fun she’s havin’! Yeah!
