Lyrics
The boss gets on my nerves
I've got a good mind to quit
I've taken all I can
It's time to get up and git
And move to another job
Or maybe another town
The gentleman burns me up
The gentleman gets me down
The gentleman is a dope
A man of many faults
A clumsy Joe who wouldn't know
A rumba from a waltz
The gentleman is a dope
And not my cup of tea
Why do I get in a dither?
He doesn't belong to me
The gentleman isn't bright
He doesn't know the score
A cake will come, he'll take a crumb
And never never ask for more
The gentleman's eyes are blue
But little do they see
Why am I beating my brains out?
He doesn't belong to me
He's somebody else's problem
She's welcome to the guy
She'll never understand him
Half as well, half as well as I
The gentleman is a dope
He isn't very smart
He's just a lug you'd like to hug
And hold against your heart
The gentleman doesn't know
How happy he could be
Well, look at me crying my eyes out
As if he belonged to me
He'll never belong to me
The gentleman is a dope
