I saw that Rosemary Clooney sang Little Girl Blues (Lorenzo and Hart)
and knowng of course the fefinitve version was sung by Janis Joplin, I
compared the lyrics, and it is just my modd to post the lyrice of Janis'
version:

 Sit there, hmm, count your fingers.
 What else, what else is there to do?
 Oh and I know how you feel,
 I know you feel that youmre through.
 Oh wah wah ah sit there, hmm, count,
 Ah, count your little fingers,
 My unhappy oh little girl, little girl blue, yeah.

 Oh sit there, oh count those raindrops
 Oh, feel mem falling down, oh honey all around you.
 Honey donmt you know itms time,
 I feel itms time,
 Somebody told you kcause you got to know
 That all you ever gonna have to count on
 Or gonna wanna lean on
 Itms gonna feel just like those raindrops do
 When theymre falling down, honey, all around you.
 Oh, I know youmre unhappy.

 Oh sit there, ah go on, go on
 And count your fingers.
 I donmt know what else, what else
 Honey have you got to do.
 And I know how you feel,
 And I know you ainmt got no reason to go on
 And I know you feel that you must be through.
 Oh honey, go on and sit right back down,
 I want you to count, oh count your fingers,
 Ah my unhappy, my unlucky
 And my little, oh, girl blue.
 I know youmre unhappy,
 Ooh ah, honey I know,
 Baby I know just how you feel.
