Lonnie Johnson "Let All Married Women Alone (1930)" |
Man, don't never mess with a woman, when she don't belong to you. Don't never mess with a woman, when she don't belong to you. After she gets you in trouble, boy, then she's through with you. A married woman called me up one mornin,' say, �Come to my house �bout half past three.� A married woman called me up one mornin,' say, �Come to my house �bout half past three.� Her husband caught me in his home, beat me till I was ragged as a cedar tree. Man, take my advice, let all married women �lone. Take my advice, and let all married women �lone. They will only frame you out your life, then hell will be your brand new home. Man, he cut at me with a razor, in the other hand was a Gatlin' gun. He cut at me with his razor, in the other hand was a Gatlin' gun. It's all right to be brave sometimes, but nothin' beats a darn good run. My eyes got big as a dollar, my heart almost jumped out in my hand. My eyes got big as a dollar, my heart almost jumped out in my hand. It's awful hard to face a woman's husband, when you only an outside man. Boys, I used to think, that a married woman was the sweetest woman that ever was born. Boys, I used to think, that a married woman was the sweetest woman ever was born. But this one �caused me so much trouble, I wish they all was dead and gone. Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
