Jessye’ Lisabeth Bobbie Gentry

[Verse 1]
Pray tell, Jessye' Lisabeth
Tell me why you're weeping?
Pray tell, Jessye' Lisabeth
When you should be sleeping?
What secret are you keeping
Jessye' Lisabeth, pray tell?

[Verse 2]
What could cause such bitter tears?
What lesson has life taught you?
Hear me sweet and precious one
Look what I have brought you
Here's a star I caught you
For my lady fair, a star

[Verse 3]
Pray tell, Jessye' Lisabeth
What can I do for you?
Pray tell, Jessye' Lisabeth
Fair maiden, I implore you
Oh, how I adore you
Your humble servant I remain
