How Can You Face Me? Lyrics by Fats Waller

The Essential

0

[Verse 1]
How can you face me
After what I've gone through
All on account of you
Tearing my heart in two?
[Verse 2]
Woman, have you no conscience
How could you be so bold?
Why have you grown so cold
After the lies you told?
[Bridge]
No one now seems to be on the level
Since I've found out that my angel was just a dog
Known as the devil
[Verse 3]
Why does I love ya, hon
Why did you teach me how?
After you broke each vow
How can you face me now?
[Piano Solo]
[Trombone Solo]
Oh you dirty dog, get out in the street
Get out, get out
How can you face me now?
No, I didn't go there last night
No, you know I wasn't there, neither
I went to the other place
[Clarinet Solo]
Yeah, don't you talk back to me, shut up
Well alright, take your dogs on out the street
[Outro]
Yeah, get out, just get up, go on and keep goin'
Yeah
