Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong - Can't We Be Friends?

[00:09.43] I thought I'd found the man of my dreams
[00:13.78] Now it seems, this is how the story ends
[00:19.05] He's going to turn me down and say
[00:21.95] "Can't we be friends?"
[00:25.67] I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
[00:30.62] Not for long, I can see the way this ends
[00:35.81] He's going to turn me down and say
[00:39.51] "Can't we be friends?"
[00:42.94] Never again, through with love
[00:48.76] Through with men
[00:50.22] They play their game without shame
[00:54.82] And who's to blame?
[01:00.03] I thought I'd found a man I could trust
[01:04.71] What a bust, this is how the story ends
[01:10.07] He's gonna turn me down and say
[01:13.12] "Can't we be friends?"
[01:16.83] Yes, I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff
[01:21.83] What a laugh, this is how our story ends
[01:27.18] I'll let her turn me down and say
[01:30.05] "Can't we be friends?"
[01:34.49] I acted like a kid out of school
[01:39.04] What a fool, now I see this is the end
[01:44.09] I'll let her turn me down and say
[01:47.17] "Can't we be friends?"
[01:50.08] Oh, what should I give
[01:54.58] Though he gave me the air
[01:59.10] Why should I cry?
[02:01.53] Ever sigh and wonder why?
[02:07.07] Yes, I should have seen the signal to stop
[02:13.26] What a flop, this is how the story ends
[02:18.56] She's gonna turn me down and say
[02:21.71] "Can't we be friends?"
[02:24.56]
[03:00.84] What should I give?
[03:04.42] Though he gave me the air
[03:08.67] And why should I cry?
[03:12.31] Ever sigh and wonder why?
[03:18.25] I should have seen the signal to stop
[03:23.28] What a flop, this is how the story ends
[03:28.43] I let him turn me down and say
[03:31.39] Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be
[03:34.25] Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be friends?
[03:39.06] Oh, yes
[03:43.71]
