Who's Sorry Now - Billy West (1923)

I think this is one of the greatest songs of the 20th century.

The music of "Who's Sorry Now?" was written by Ted Snyder.

Lyrics are by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby.

The song was published in 1923.

Billy Jones sings as "Billy West" on Grey Gull 2015.

You smiled when we parted. It
hurt me somehow. I thought
there was nothing worthwhile.

The tables are turning, and
you're crying now while I am
just learning to smile.

Who's sorry now? Who's sorry now?
Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow?
Who's sad and blue? Who's cryin', too,
Just like I cried over you?

Right to the end--just like a friend--
I tried to warn you somehow.
You had your way. Now you must pay.
I'm glad that you're sorry now.
