Sophisticated Lady Lyrics - Ellington Ballads - Horace Parlan

Sophisticated lady tryin' to change my ways 

Just because you're caught in your social maze 

I think it's 'bout time that you realize 

Your money and your power's got you mesmerized 

Pretty lady, get back 

Pretty lady, yea 

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on 

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone 

Educated lady with your college degree 

Amazes me why you just can't see 

Learned everything from your books on the shelf 

But no one ever taught you how to think for yourself 

Pretty lady, get back 

Pretty lady, yea, sweet thing 

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on 

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone 

Sophisticated lady take a lesson from me 

I can help you be what you want to be 

Together we'll see many brighter days 

If it takes forever, gonna change your ways 

Pretty lady, get back 

Pretty lady, yea, sweet thing 

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on 

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone 

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on 

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone 

Sophisticated lady put your blue jeans on 

You're anybody's baby when your mama's gone
