KEY LARGO (Anita O'Day)
Benny Carter / Karl Suesdorf / Worth

Anita O'Day w Benny Carter & his Music  
rec 1940's Los Angeles


Key Largo, 
Alone in Key Largo,
How empty it seems
With only my dreams.
Strange cargo
May come to Key Largo,
But where is the fence
My heart won't erect?

The moon tide rolling in from the sea;
It's lonely,
And it always will be
Till you're with me!
And I know I'll stay in Key Largo,
Just watching the shore
To find you once more.
