Aggravatin' Papa (04-11-23)
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!
