Tess's Torch Song |
Here is a story 'bout a gal |
Folks called her Torchy Tess |
Because she trusted, her heart got busted |
Love made her life a mess |
It evidently was an awful blow |
For this is, word for word, poor Tess’s tale of woe |
I had a man |
He was a good man |
That is, you see, what I mean is |
I thought he was a good man |
I had a friend |
She was a good friend |
I told my friend 'bout my man 'cause |
I thought she was a good friend |
Life was sweet, didn’t I have my man? |
World complete, then the fireworks began |
Ain’t got no man, ain’t got no friend |
Well, I bet you can guess just exactly what happened |
That was the end, the end of my friend |
The end of my man and almost the end of me |
Life was sweet, didn’t I have, didn’t I have my man? |
World complete, then the fireworks began |
Ain’t got no man, ain’t got no friend |
Well, I bet you can guess just exactly what happened |
That was the end, the end of my friend |
The end of my man, and darn near the end of me |
Yeah |
