0:12Something cool
0:17I'd like to order something cool
0:25It's so warm here in town and this heat gets me down
0:33Yes' I'd like something cool
0:38My' it's nice to simply sit and rest awhile
0:49You know it's a shame
0:52I can't think of your name
0:55I remember your smile
1:00I don't ordinarily drink with strangers
1:07I guess I usually drink alone
1:14But you were so awfully nice to ask me
1:17And I'm so terribly far from home
1:24Like my dress I must confess it's very old
1:35But it's simple and neat' it's just right for this heat
1:42Save my furs for the cold
1:46A cigarette' no I don't smoke them as a rule
1:57But I'll have one' it might be fun with something cool
2:10I'd bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house
2:15With so many rooms you couldn't count them all
2:21I'll bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys
2:27Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball
2:32And I know you couldn't picture me
2:35The time I went to Paris in the fall
2:43And who would think the man that I loved
2:49Was quite so handsome and quite so tall
3:08Well' it's through' it's just a memory I had
3:18One I almost forgot since the weather's so hot
3:25And I'm feeling so bad about a date' oh wait' I'm such a fool
3:41He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool
Something cool
I'd like to order something cool
It's so warm here in town and this heat gets me down
Yes' I'd like something cool
My' it's nice to simply sit and rest awhile
You know it's a shame
I can't think of your name
I remember your smile
I don't ordinarily drink with strangers
I guess I usually drink alone
But you were so awfully nice to ask me
And I'm so terribly far from home
Like my dress I must confess it's very old
But it's simple and neat' it's just right for this heat
Save my furs for the cold
A cigarette' no I don't smoke them as a rule
But I'll have one' it might be fun with something cool
I'd bet you wouldn't imagine that I once had a house
With so many rooms you couldn't count them all
I'll bet that you couldn't imagine I had fifteen different boys
Who would beg and beg to take me to a ball
And I know you couldn't picture me
The time I went to Paris in the fall
And who would think the man that I loved
Was quite so handsome and quite so tall
Well' it's through' it's just a memory I had
One I almost forgot since the weather's so hot
And I'm feeling so bad about a date' oh wait' I'm such a fool
He's just a guy who stopped to buy me something cool
