Aggravatin’ Papa |
I know a drivin' man, |
They call him Driver Sam, |
He lives in Birmingham, |
Way down in Alabam. |
Now, the other night |
He had a fight with a gal named Mandy Brown, |
She kept on saying he was aggravatin', |
And she shouted out to him: |
Aggravatin' Papa, don’t you try to two-time me! |
I said, don’t two-time me! |
Aggravatin' Papa, treat me kind or let me be, |
I mean, just let me be! |
It’s been awhile, I’ll get you told, |
Stop messin' round, sweet jellyroll. |
If you stay out with a high-brown baby, |
I’ll smack you down, and I don’t mean maybe! |
Aggravatin' Papa, I’ll do anything you say, |
Anything you say, |
But when you go struttin', do your strut around my way! |
So, papa, just treat me pretty, be nice and kind! |
The way you treated me will make me lose my mind! |
Aggravatin' Papa, don’t you try to two-time me! |
Just treat me pretty, be nice and sweet! |
I got a darn forty-four that don’t repeat, |
Aggravatin' Papa, don’t you try to two-time me! |
