A Sunbonnet Blue (And a Yellow Straw Hat) Lyrics by Billie Holiday

Lady Day: The Complete Billie Holiday on Columbia (1933-1944)

0

[Verse 1]
A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat
Shy little he and she
Were declaring love's old story
In the shade of the old apple tree
[Verse 2]
A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat
Decided to say, "I do"
So they rode to June and glory
On a bicycle built for two
[Bridge]
Hear the past, the song is old
The summer days are through
With silver threads among the gold
They still say, "I love you"
[Verse 3]
A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat
Are true to this very day
For he loves her in December
As he did in May
