Lyrics

Don’t Call on Me

[Intro]

Where are you from?

Oh, yeah, right, perfect

Can you play, uh... "Down and Out..."

[?]

Yeah

And now, from the elegant Pump Room of the magnificent Palmer House, high over Chicago, asking that musical question...

[Verse 1]

Don't call on me

When you're feelin' footloose and fancy-free

You've done that before

And like a fool, I came back for more

[Bridge]

It's all over now

I've finally seen my way

I need you no more

Not now, or any other day

Ah

[Organ Solo]

[Verse 2]

Okay, little girl

Live for yourself in your own little world

I know that you'll find

Someone who'll play at love, he'll be just your kind

[Outro]

Be just your kind

Be just your kind

Be just your kind

Yeah, personally [?]

Check, please

Check, please, waiter...

Yeah, OK. It was good seeing you again...
