Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today 
She is sorry to be delayed 
But last evening down on lover's lane she strayed 
Madam 
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today 

When she woke up and found that her dream of love was gone 
Madam 
She ran to the man who had 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 [bad word] her upon 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
