Where Did Everyone Go? - Nat "King" Cole
It wasn't my intention to eavesdrop
But there a guy sat two stools away
And you could tell the bartender knew him
And that he'd been there some other day
And while I sipped my libation
I overheard his conversation
Remember how I'd walk in
What excitement there would be
Never less than twenty people
I had lots of friends you see
I gave the party I was the host
Everyone loved me
I was the most
Champagne and plenty of it
Real imported caviar
And the hat check girl got fifty
Just for lighting my cigar
I kept 'em laughin' jokes by the yard
Everyone loved me
I was a card
And I had a girl
A beautiful girl
Her whole world I think consisted of mink
And diamonds and pearls
Because she was mine
I'd glitter and shine
And life was a ball and wasn't it all
So cozy in fine
But nothing lasts forever
And the deepest well runs dry
Just 'cause I've stopped rolling sevens
Doesn't mean I have to cry
I'll take that nightcap
One more won't show
And incidentally
Maybe you know
Where oh where oh where
Did everyone go
Where oh where oh where
Did everyone go
