The Heel - Eartha Kidd[00:00:02]
Written by:Robinson Wilson Fere/Robinson[00:00:03]
The one who has me for his own[00:00:11]
Is on the town and I'm alone[00:00:12]
In his blue suit and his new tie[00:00:14]
He slams the door without goodbye[00:00:16]
Tonight my eyes are jealous green[00:00:20]
Tonight I'm melancholy mean[00:00:22]
He meets in secret rendezvous[00:00:24]
Some dame to tell his troubles to[00:00:25]
The heel[00:00:28]
He'll promise her most anything[00:00:32]
A sable coat a diamond ring[00:00:33]
She'll find him out when it's too late[00:00:35]
And all she'll get will be the date[00:00:37]
But while the dawn's a distant thing[00:00:42]
In his embrace her heart will sing[00:00:44]
A dizzy head will spin with lies[00:00:45]
And all too soon a woman cries[00:00:47]
The heel[00:00:50]
The neon lights that flash below[00:00:53]
Ignite my room with double glow[00:00:55]
And in the gloom I hear a laugh[00:00:57]
It's coming from his photograph[00:00:59]
I wring my hands and mop the floor[00:01:03]
And swear to even up the score[00:01:05]
But where a kitten cried tonight[00:01:07]
A panther waits to claw and bite[00:01:08]
The heel[00:01:11]
I dare not play my radio[00:01:15]
One more complaint and out I go[00:01:16]
I'm sick of playing solitaire[00:01:18]
The ace of spades is everywhere[00:01:20]
They'll be no sleep for me tonight[00:01:24]
The sheep I count are never white[00:01:26]
They all turn out to be jet black[00:01:28]
And who's the leader of the pack[00:01:29]
The heel[00:01:33]
At dawn I know he'll stagger in[00:01:36]
Demanding coffee black as sin[00:01:38]
And as I take it from the tin[00:01:39]
I'll slip a little powder in[00:01:41]
He'll look at me and start to cry[00:01:46]
And 'cross his heart and hope to die[00:01:48]
And mumble I know how you feel[00:01:49]
But I've been on a business deal[00:01:51]
The heel[00:01:54]
Then as the pot begins to perc[00:01:58]
I know my plan will never work[00:01:59]
When he starts to drink it up[00:02:01]
I grab his hand and break the cup[00:02:02]
It's only jealousy I know[00:02:07]
That brought my thinking down so low[00:02:09]
Why must I wait for him and grieve[00:02:11]
Why don't I just pack up and leave[00:02:12]
The heel[00:02:15]
But now he's reeling on the stair[00:02:19]
I'll try to act like I don't care[00:02:21]
For in my heart's arithmetic[00:02:22]
I find it takes two heels to click[00:02:24]
We're in a web of love and hate[00:02:29]
Where it will end is up to fate[00:02:30]
I'll let him have his little flings[00:02:32]
I'll be the chewing gum that clings[00:02:34]
To the heel[00:02:36]
