[00:00.00]To Keep My Love Alive (Remaster) - Ella Fitzgerald
[00:05.83]I've been married and married
[00:08.90]And often I've sighed
[00:12.12]"I'm never a bridesmaid
[00:15.69]I'm always the bride"
[00:19.46]I never divorced them
[00:22.92]I hadn't the heart
[00:25.60]Yet remember these sweet words
[00:30.70]"Till death do us part"
[00:44.83]I married many men a ton of them
[00:49.31]Because I was untrue to none of them
[00:53.71]Because I bumped off every one of them
[00:58.26]To keep my love alive
[01:02.64]Sir Paul was frail he looked a wreck to me
[01:07.21]At night he was a horse's neck to me
[01:11.58]So I performed an appendectomy
[01:15.82]To keep my love alive
[01:20.47]Sir Thomas had insomnia
[01:24.97]He couldn't sleep at night
[01:29.46]I bought a little arsenic
[01:33.96]He's sleeping now all right
[01:38.46]Sir Philip played the harp
[01:41.06]I cussed the thing
[01:42.87]I crowned him with his harp
[01:45.12]To bust the thing
[01:47.19]And now he plays
[01:48.85]Where harps are just the thing
[01:51.64]To keep my love alive
[01:55.96]To keep my love alive
[02:09.19]I thought Sir George had possibilities
[02:13.42]But his flirtations made me ill at ease
[02:17.94]And when I'm ill at ease I kill at ease
[02:22.41]To keep my love alive
[02:26.61]Sir Charles came from a sanatorium
[02:31.19]And yelled for drinks in my emporium
[02:35.51]I mixed one drink he's in memoriam
[02:39.84]To keep my love alive
[02:44.23]Sir Francis was a singing bird
[02:48.69]A nightingale that's why
[02:53.00]I tossed him off my balcony
[02:57.32]To see if he could fly
[03:01.73]Sir Atherton indulged in fratricide
[03:06.31]He killed his dad and
[03:07.82]That was patricide
[03:10.50]One night I stabbed him
[03:12.22]By my mattress side
[03:14.91]To keep my love alive
[03:19.21]To keep my love alive
[03:23.76]To keep my love alive
