You’re nobody’s sweetheart now
They don’t baby you, somehow
Fancy hose, silken gown
You’d be out of place in your own home town
When you walk down the avenue
I just can’t believe that it’s you
Painted lips, painted eyes
Wearing a bird of paradise
It all seems wrong somehow
That you’re nobody’s sweetheart now
You were everybody’s sweetheart
Not so long ago
And in your own hometown, each boy around
Longed to be your beau
But things are different today
I’m mighty sorry to say
You’re nobody’s sweetheart now
They don’t baby you, somehow
Fancy hose, silken gown
You’d be out of place in your own home town
When you walk down the avenue
I just can’t believe that it’s you
Painted lips, painted eyes
Wearing a bird of paradise
It all seems wrong somehow
That you’re nobody’s sweetheart now
