BILLIE HOLIDAY - MANDY IS TWO lyrics

rate me

Fulton McGrath / Johnny Mercer

Mandy is two

You ought to see her eyes of cornflower blue

They really look as it they actually knew

That she's a big girl now

Mandy is two

You ought to see how many things she can do

She knows her alphabet

And ties her own shoes

And no one showed her how

If you could see her majesty

With braids in her hair

Almost as though her Sunday beau

Came around and brought her an orchid to wear

Mummy is blue

Because her little girl is going on three

But Miss Amanda she's as proud as can be

Cause she's a big girl now
