Teressa Brewer Lyrics for Part 1:
 
Come on, get wise, Milord, Her lips tell lies, Milord.
The girl that you adore, Has found some other guy.
She just got bored, Milord, Now you're ignored, Milord.
Deep down inside, your pride, Won't let you say goodbye.
That Southern belle, Milord, Has got a heart of ice.
Love can be done, Milord, As well as paradise.
