From Blossom's Blues
"My name is Blossom, I was raised in a lion's den. My name is Blossom, I was raised in a lion's den. My nightly occupation, is stealing other women's men."
Blossom Dearie, April 28th, 1928 -- February 7th, 2009
I LOVE Blossom Dearie. With a voice like that I might not even mind if she stole my man. What a loss.
