Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos 10th Sep 2022		Peggy Johnson's (a.k.a Beth Challis') version is much faster than the wonderful Ethel Water's version on Decca 140 but also quite nice. The text differs a bit. A side: Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today, Madam, Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today. She is sorry to be delayed, But last evening down in Lover's Lane she laid, Madam, Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today. When she woke up and found that her little white flower was gone, Madam, she ran to the man who lead her so far astray. And from under her velvet gown She drew a gun and shot her lover down, Madam, Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today. When the mob came and got her and dragged her from the jail, Madam, they strung her up on the old willow across the way. And the moment before she died, She lifted up her lovely head and cried, Madam, Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.
