(Duke Pearson/Oscar Brown, Jr.)
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
Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine

[Scat section]


Hey cats - are you ready?
Oh Jeannine (Jeannine)

Jeannine (Jeannine)

Last time

Last time I saw Jeannine
Last time I saw Jeannine
