Sophisticated Lady
They say into your early life romance came, And in this heart of yours burned a flame A flame that flickered one day and died away. Then, with disillusion deep in your eyes, You learned that fools in love soon grown wise The years have changed you, somehow; I see you know Smoking, drinking, never thinking of tomorrow, nonchalant, Diamonds shining, dancing, dining with some man in a restaurant, Is that all your really want? No, Sophisticated lady, I know, you miss the love you lost long ago And when nobody is nigh you cry.

Sophisticated lady Sophisticated lady Sophisticated lady Sophisticated lady
Everybody knows how she got her name, yeah, yeah
She's a different lady with a different style She stands tall and ready like the Eiffel Tower She is hip to politics, but loves her jazz She's got lots of rhythm, she's got lots of class
Everybody knows how she got her name, yeah, yeah Oh, huh
She wears knee-length dresses with her high-high steppers She's not no back stabber, but she's sure a pleaser She talks quiet and gentle, she acts very cool She sticks close to her lover, she obeys God's rule (Whoa)
