Miss Otis Regrets

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 from her dream
And found that her 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.
Then 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.
Today...
