Perdido
Duke Ellington
,
Dean Martin
Perdido, I look for my heart
It’s perdido, I lost it way down in Torito
The day the fiesta started
Bolero, I sway that they play the Bolero
I kissed me the listing sombrero
And that’s when my heart departed
High, was the sun when I held her close
Low, was the moon when we said, “Adios”
Perdido, My heart ever since is Perdido
I know I must go to Torito, To find what I lost Perdido
(scat)
High, was the sun when I held her close
Low, was the moon when we said, “Adios”
Note: Duke Ellington did NOT write it
