From the Studio #42

Pardon Me Pretty Baby

I thought that this tune deserved a more ambitious arrangement and an interpretation in the late 1920s style.

Pardon me pretty baby
is it yes, is it no, is it maybe?
Pardon me pretty baby
don't I look familiar to you?

Aw come on get acquainted
there's a bench in the park newly painted,
great idea, honey ain't it,
Well at least it's something to do.

Was it summer when I met you,
Was it underneath the moon?
Was it London, were we golf-ing
How could you forget so soon.

By the way, How's your Mother,
and your Dad and your Sis and your Brother
Pardon me, who’s another,
Don't I look familiar to you?
