So Swell When You're Well
You know I love you, baby, from A to Z
But something about you keep a-worrying me
Sometimes you love me, and sometimes you don't
Sometimes you will, and then, sometimes you won't
Oh, you're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
Keep on conniving and your living too
True love ain't never gonna smile on you
You pace the floor, honey, you sit and cry
Pull out your hair, and then you wonder why
Oh, you're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
You build me up, and then you let me down
Gimme little smile, but then you change it to frown
Yeah, if you love me like you say you do
How could you love me after you've been too?
Oh, you're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
Fool that I am not to put you down
Gimme little smile, and then you change it to a frown
Yeah, if you love me like you say you do
Tell me, how could you love me after you've been too?
Oh, you're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
Do you know that you're ha, yeah, so swell, when you're well?
You're so swell! So swell, baby, when you're well
Let me hear you now!
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh... you're so swell, baby, when you're well
Uh-huh, yeah, yeah!
Oh, but you just stay sick so
Oh, you're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
You're so swell, baby, when you're well
Oh, but you just stay sick so long
Do you know, ah, hah?
But you just stay sick so
So sick, so sick! Yeah-heah, yeah-heah
