Duke Ellington — A Lonely Co-Ed

[Verse 1] I just can't seem to get that campus bloom When I come in, the boys all leave the room I just don't seem to attract I'm just a lonely co-ed I wear my clothes like all the other girls I wear my hair with all the latest curls They just don't seem to react I'm just a lonely co-ed [Bridge] Maybe I don't know enough of the tricks Maybe I lack technique Maybe there's something that I could fix Maybe my line is weak [Verse 2] While everybody else is making love I sit with folded hands, the picture of A total failure, a flop I'm just a lonely co-ed [Instrumental]
