Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out To Dry - Sammy Davis, Jr.

The torch I carry is handsome

It’s worth its heartache in ransom

And when the twilight steals

I know how the lady in the harbor feels

When I want rain I get sunny weather

I’m just as blue as the sky

Since love is gone, can’t pull myself together

Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry

Friends ask me out, I tell them I’m busy

I must get a new alibi, I stay at home

And ask myself where is he?

Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry

Dry little teardrops hanging on a string of dreams

Fly little memories, my little memories

Remind him pf our crazy schemes

Somebody said just forget about him

So I gave that treatment a try

Strangely enough I got along without him

Then one day he passed me right by

Oh well, I guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
