I'm just a scarecrow without you
Baby please don't disappear
I beg your pardon dear

I got a bottle for a trumpet
And a hatbox for a drum
I beg your pardon dear

I got upset
I lost my head
I didn't mean the things I said
You are the landscape of my dreams
Darling I beg your pardon

I'd give you Boardwalk and Park Place
And all of my hotels
I beg your pardon dear

Please don't go back to St. Louis
Can't you tell that I'm sincere
I beg your pardon dear

I got upset
I lost my head
I didn't mean the things I said
You are the landscape of my dreams
Darling I beg your pardon
