@blue22293 Listen to the lyrics. The song is about prostitution. It is the lament of a very young prostitute.
And Billie Holiday knew that business, since she was working in brothel at 13.

The fact that it's about prostitution may explain its being banned from the radio, but it does not justify it.

Great song. I've even seen a short clip/video of Billie singing this song maybe it was from a film?

Such bite in the reading of these lyrics! No glibness here, just a real understanding.

Vivian Green does a nice modern version too. You can find it here on youtube if you havent already heard it. But no doubt, Billie ROCKS!
