Heard this song. I spent 2 hours trying to find it. I heard it was a Charlie Brown song so I kept looking and looking but finally I realized it sounded familiar to the Ink spots. Thanks for uploading. Music like this should never be lost. Can’t imagine how much music that has been lost...
Fats Domino knew enough to borrow from the best when necessary. He covered Coquette as the flip side of Whole Lotta Loving on Imperial. To this day, his version remains one of only three records that I played so much that it was worn to the point of not being playable anymore. The Ink Spots' mastery of subtle high drama most assuredly did it justice, as well.
Tell me why you keep fooling, little coquette Making fun of the ones who love you Breaking hearts you are ruling, little coquette True hearts tenderly dreaming of you Someday you'll fall in love like I fell in love with you Maybe someone you love will just be fooling And when you are alone with only regrets You'll know, little coquette, I love you [Spoken] Why don't you quit foolin' this boy, little coquette? And why don't you quit makin' fun of all the ones that love ya? Ya know what you're doin? You're brakin' hearts that you could be rulin', and you're too sweet a girl for that There's a lots of true hearts, and all of 'em's always tenderly thinkin' of you You know, someday you're gonna get old And you don't wanna be old with only regrets Just sittin' there dreamin' about someone that used to love you [Sung] Someday you'll fall in love like I fell in love with you Maybe someone you love will just be fooling around with you And when you are alone with only regrets You'll know, little coquette, I love you

So many good tunes go unnoticed. Breaks mt heart just a tiny bit 💔 but at least we have the ink spots still
None can dislike this man. Not even those hiphop guys that like little wayne. The ink spots are to awsome to be disliked even by one person.
My grandfather introduced me to the ink spots
Shit like this really needs to be archived somewhere
Here to your prayer: archive.org/search.php?query=The%20Ink%20Spots
This is embedded into my heart
Marc Goldberg made a book about The Ink Spots called More Than Words Can Say. I couldn't recommend it more, also there making a movie off of it
thank you fallout for introducing me to music like this
10 years ago I met a Tuskegee Airman named Harry Stewart, Jr. His P-51 was named Little Coquette, I'm fairly sure it was after this song. Wonderful!
Deek Watson sings the lead beautifully on this song.

Just found a 45t with this song...so sweet
Great! They send me good vibes. God bless you
Tell me why you keep fooling, little coquette
Making fun of the ones who love you
Breaking hearts you are ruling, little coquette
True hearts tenderly dreaming of you
Someday you'll fall in love like I fell in love with you
Maybe someone you love will just be fooling
And when you are alone with only regrets
You'll know, little coquette, I love you
[Spoken]
Why don't you quit foolin' this boy, little coquette?
And why don't you quit makin' fun of all the ones that love ya?
Ya know what you're doin? You're brakin' hearts that you could be rulin', and you're too sweet a girl for that
There's a lots of true hearts, and all of 'em's always tenderly thinkin' of you
You know, someday you're gonna get old
And you don't wanna be old with only regrets
Just sittin' there dreamin' about someone that used to love you
[Sung]
Someday you'll fall in love like I fell in love with you
Maybe someone you love will just be fooling around with you
And when you are alone with only regrets
You'll know, little coquette, I love you
thanks for the lyrics :)
they were a major influence on elvis
used 2 have this on 78rpm got broke sometime ago thanks 4 posting.
Beautiful recording
It’s very unusual you would here an instrumental break after the hoppy Jones talking part
I've heard this a million times and been playing it for a while with my band, and just revisiting it now and noting this for the first time.
The guitar intro is always almost the same ✨♥️
coquette girls rise
When the lucidity moments are sufficient
Never realized I was the coquette
Bonjour, Hello,
merci de cette interprétation.
mais qui a créé cette chanson, et en quelle année ?
merci
En 1949.
my uncle did a cover of this song so I was wondering where I knew it frrom
This is true soulful music unlike rap crap/ hip hop
Mario Garcia Hip hop and rap aren’t supposed to be soulful, smart guy.
o.g hip-hop[ is souful and sampled songs liked theses I suggest you research more into real hip-hop culture
Why does the beginning sound like banjo-kazooie
:(:(:(
I think the Billy Eckstein version is the best.
♫"Little coke-head....don't be a little coke-head"♫?
Oh I see 😉
