Miss Otis Regrets

Miss Otis regrette de ne pouvoir venir dîner, Madame,Miss Otis regrette de ne pouvoir venir dînerMais hier, au bois elle est alléeDans l'allée des amoureux, s'est égarée, Madame,Miss Otis regrette de ne pouvoir venir dîner

Quand elle comprit que son bel amour était fini, Madame,Elle courut vers l'homme qui l'avait indignement trahieDe sa robe en velours chiné sortit un browningEt le tua sans hésiter, Madame,Miss Otis regrette de ne pouvoir venir dîner

La foule vint, força la prison et la saisit, Madame,On la traîna jusqu'au vieux tilleul où on la penditMais juste avant de trépasserElle releva sa jolie tête pour murmurer, Madame,« Miss Otis regrette de ne pouvoir venir dîner. »

Miss Otis Regrets

Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today, madam,Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.She is sorry to be delayed,But last evening down in Lover's Lane she strayed, madam,

Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.When she woke up and found that her dream of love was gone, madam,She ran to the man who had led her so far astray,And from under her velvet gown,

She drew a gun and shot her love down, madam,Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.When the mob came and got her and dragged her from the jail, madam,They strung her upon the old willow across the way,

And the moment before she died,She lifted up her lovely head and cried, madam......Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today.Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
