Nobody's Sweetheart

You're nobody's sweetheart now

They don't baby you, somehow

Fancy hose, silken gown

You'd be out of place in your own home town

When you walk down the avenue

I just can't believe that it's you

Painted lips, painted eyes

Wearing a bird of paradise

It all seems wrong somehow

That you're nobody's sweetheart now

You were everybody's sweetheart

Not so long ago

And in your own hometown, each boy around

Longed to be your beau

But things are different today

I'm mighty sorry to say

You're nobody's sweetheart now

They don't baby you, somehow

Fancy hose, silken gown

You'd be out of place in your own home town

When you walk down the avenue

I just can't believe that it's you

Painted lips, painted eyes

Wearing a bird of paradise

It all seems wrong somehow

That you're nobody's sweetheart now
