Can't we be friends lyrics

[Ella Fitzgerald]

I thought I'd found the man of my dreams

Now it seems, this is how the story ends

He's going to turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?"

I thought for once it couldn't go wrong

Not for long! I can see the way this ends

He's going to turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?"

Never again, through with love

Through with men

They play their game without shame

And who's to blame?

I thought I'd found a man I could trust

What a bust, this is how the story ends

He's going to turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?"

[Louis Armstrong]

Yes, I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff

What a laugh, this is how our story ends

I'll let her turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?"

I acted like a kid out of school

What a fool, now I see this is the end

I'll let her turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?" (2x)

Oh, what should I give?

Though he gave me the air

Why should I cry?

He was sigh and wonder why

Yes, I should have seen the signal to stop

What a flop, this is how the story ends

She's gonna turn me down and say

"Can't we be friends?"

---trumpet solo---

[Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong]

What should I give?

Though he gave me the air

And why should I cry?

He was sigh and wonder why

I should have seen the signal to stop

What a flop, this is how the story ends

I let him turn me down and say

Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be

Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be friends?

Oh, yes
