ELLA FITZGERALD
"I Taught Him Everything He Knows"

I taught him everything he knows
And then what did he do?
He turned to someone else
And taught her everything he knew
The way to cuddle close
And kiss so tenderly
The words to say, the things to do
He learned from me

I taught him love's all that matters on this Earth
Now he has left me and what was it all worth?
I thought that he'd be true to me
But that's the way it goes
She ought to thank me
'Cause I taught him everything he knows
(Everything he knows)

I thought that he'd be true to me
But that's the way it goes
She ought to thank me
'Cause I taught him everything he knows
