Jeannine - Manhattan Transfer

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

She looked just like a royal queen

And she cruised by With some wealthy guy

In a Cadillac limousine

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

Recall when we were seventeen

I was a beau

'Twas not so long ago

But too short

Of that long lost dream

To satisfy Jeannine

Now she’s gone from me Moved away from the old neighborhood

And I’m certain

She’s gone for good

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

The dollar signs stood in between

It was a love lost to the rising cost

But since then, I have never seen

I have never seen Jeannine

Instrumental solo

Now she’s gone from me Moved away from the old neighborhood

And I’m certain

She’s gone for good

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

The dollar signs stood in between

It was a love lost to the rising cost

But since then, I have never seen

I have never seen Jeannine

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine
