A Sunbonnet Blue (And a Yellow Straw Hat) - Billie Holiday, Ben Webster, Teddy Wilson

A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat

Shy little he and she

Were declaring love’s old story

In the shade of the old apple tree

A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat

Decided to say, «I do»

So they rode to June and glory

On a bicycle built for two

Hear the past, the song is old

The summer days are through

With silver threads among the gold

They still say, «I love you»

A sunbonnet blue and a yellow straw hat

Are true to this very day

For he loves her in December

As he did in May
