This is a song by Peggy Lee and the Benny Goodman orchestra, recorded in the 1940s.
I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good), origionally by Ella Fitzgerald
Lyrics:
Never treats me sweet and gentle
The way he should
Cause I got it bad, and that ain't good
My poor heart is sentimental
Not made of wood
I got it bad, and that ain't good
But when the weekend's over
And Monday rolls around
My man and me, we pray some,
We gin some and sin some
He don't love me
Like I love him
Nobody could
I got it bad, and that ain't good

The orchestration is wonderful at that point! So adventurous for that era.I would bet this is an Eddie Sauter arrangement. PEggy was such an amazing singer! Best phrasing.

Singers' voices change over the years. Hers did, for sure. Sinatra's voice changed on him over the years too.

Her singing is great. However, the orchestration does not fit the song at all after 2 minutes.

I agree. Kind of ruins the song a bit for me :|
