Sung

in the 1943 film "Girl Crazy" by Judy Garland

They're writing songs of love, but not for me

A lucky star's above, but not for me

With love to lead the way

I found more clouds are gray

Than any rainy day, could guarantee

I was a fool to fall, and get that way

I should have known the price, I'd have to pay

Although I can't dismiss

The memory of his kiss

I guess he's not, -------------, for me

Another Version:

But Not For Me

George and Ira Gershwin

- From sheet music.

They're writing songs of love, but not for me.

A lucky star's above, but not for me.

With love to lead the way, I've seen more clouds of gray

Than any Russian play could guarantee.

I was a fool to fall and get that way.

Heigh ho, alas, and also lackaday.

Although I can't dismiss, the memory of her kiss.

I guess she's not for me.

She's knocking on the door, but not for me.

She'll plan a two by four, but not for me.

I know that love's a game, I'm puzzled just the same.

Was I the moth or flame, I'm all at sea.

It all began so well, but what an end.

This is the time a feller needs a friend.

When every happy plot ends with the marriage knot

And there's no knot for me.
