Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

 She is sorry to be delayed,

 but last evening down in Lover's Lane she strayed,

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When she woke up and found

That her dream of love was gone,

Madam,

She ran to the man

Who had led her so far astray,

And from under her velvet gown

She drew a gun and shot her lover down,

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When the mob came and got her

And dragged her from the jail,

Madam,

They strung her upon

The old willow across the way,

And the moment before she died

She lifted up her head and cried,

Madam,

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today

Miss otis regrets she's unable to lunch

today

It was just one of those things,

Just one of those crazy flings,

One of those bells that now and then rings,

 Just one of those things.

It was just one of those nights,

Just one of those fabulous flights,

A trip to the moon on gossamer wings,

Just one of those things

If we'd thought a bit

Of the end of it,

 When we started painting the town,

We'd have been aware

That our love affair

 Was too hot not to cool down.

So goodbye, Dear, and Amen.

Here's hoping we meet now and then,

It was great fun,

But it was just one of those things

It was just one of those nights,

Just one of those fabulous flights,

A trip to the moon on gossamer wings,

Just one of those things

So goodbye, Dear, and Amen.

Here's hoping we meet now and then,

It was great fun,

But it was just one of those things
